Welcome to drunken loading, lesson #567
How to do ladder testing.
>Shit I gotta find a powder charge my gun likes. The fuck do I do?
>I got dis. Lets ladder test this
>Go get your bullet right off the lands if you're in a bolt gun. If you're using a semi auto, use whatever your recipe book says. Because, muh feeding angles (sometimes), but it's more annoying to load 100 rounds that won't fit in your magazines. That sucks.
>Go look at your powder charge range.
>I'm working off memory, but my 223 loads are 23-29 or so. (NOT RELOADING DATA)
>Pick a difference that your scale can actually measure. Buddy, unless you have a coke scale in the house (Hypothetically I do), .1 gr differences gets swallowed up by the scale innacuracies
>So, I go with .2 gr differences.
>Figure out where you want precision. Pick your starting area good.
>Load up 3 rounds of each difference.
>3 rounds of 25.0, 3 rounds of 25.2, 3 rounds of 25.4, ... etc.
>Go to the range, stick your gun in a lead sled.
>Shoot the first three rounds. Walk down range. Mark the powder charge.
