I’m typically a 1-1.5moa shooter most days of the week, at least with my center fire rifles. Don’t have a sled or a chrono. I’m feeling like buying a chrono is going to be a must, esp considering my primary concern is building consistent center fire rifle hunting loads. What’s the general rule of thumb? Start at the minimum, and ramp up loads until you start seeing warning signs, then back off a little? Currently I’m looking at loading plinking pistol rounds and rifle hunting rounds. 38spl/223 was mentioned earlier as a good starting point for reloading due to ease, is that every one else’s opinion as well?any suggested reading/videos on testing/developing loads?</blockquote>
