[QUOTE="angsniper, post: 1438535, member: 6627"] It depends on what my goal is. I have had a xx.3 charge shoot .325 MOA and a xx.5 charge spread out to 2.5 MOA. Each load is different and may or may not effect your accuracy to this degree. You're shooting .5 MOA already. That's pretty darn good. Do you need more accuracy than that? If you do then I would attempt to remove every variable that I could. 1. Sort your brass by weight with anything + or - .5gr going into a practice pile. 2. Make sure all your cases are trimmed to the same length. 3. Ream your flash holes. They are usually punched and not drilled which causes there to be a flap inside the case. You can get a universal reamer that can be used on different calibers. 4. Turn your necks. Once you do you'll be surprised at the variation you find in some cases. 5. Weigh each charge seperately. 6. With a bolt gun you can measure your headspace on a spend case and set your die to only bump the shoulder back slightly. You may or may not improve on a .5 MOA gun. That could be the best the rifle or shooter is capable of. However, if you remove every variable you can you'll know for sure what you and your weapon are capable of. [/QUOTE]
