    Precision

    I just read the post on powder tricklers then, in the shower, thought to myself: I'm glad my balance doesn't measure powder to the 0.01 grain. Otherwise something inside me would make me stand there until I had it just right. If it measured to the 0.001, same thing. I think some of you can...

    I crossed this post via google. And thought I'd let any 35 Rem owner know I've been working with LVR and settled on a load with 43 grains of LVR and the 220 Speer for 2,200 fps. Groups very consistently at 0.5" at 50 yards with iron sights in my 336. Although this is over published max, the...
