Powder Dispensing Accuracy & Match Dies

Point still stands. You don't need the .02 of a grain accuracy. I very much doubt anyone could shoot the difference if they were given loads blind. There are just too many variables to worry about that fine of a resolution in charges.

The reason people went to the 0.02 gn accuracy is that it's *plus or minus* 0.02 gn, vs *plus or minus* 0.1 gn. If your load is right in the middle of a big fat charge node, then yes, +/- 0.1 is fine, or at least 'good enough'. Back in the before-times - I.e. 'before Hornady thought it was the end-all-be-all definition of accuracy' people shooting BR based cartridges generally wanted as tight of control of that particular value.

Little covert in 308 is a joy to shoot at night. Dead on sub 1/2 with fgmm 168, banging steel at night.

The TX60C has great sensitivity. Fun to watch the impacts from the heat heat signature defined from the hits whether it is cardboard or steel.

Nice, does the horse shoe provide a significant improvement in accuracy. Whatever the case, nice covert!

Match grade barrel fouling after 40rds?

Will there be fire cracking on a barrel that new?

Depending on rate of fire, contour, and barrel steel quality....it's entirely possible. It's burning 58+gr every shot, it ain't a 29.xgr 6br, lol. Op, are you letting next rd to be fired sit in a hot chamber very long(10+ sec)?

Match grade barrel fouling after 40rds?

Aside from the things that have been mentioned, when I've had trouble with a barrel fouling after a few dozen rounds it's been because of the powder. Either the powder I used was overly dirty or I wasn't getting the pressure up to where the powder burned most efficiently.

H1000 is viewed as a relatively clean powder. Is the load you're using on the low side?

That is a upper end load in my barrel, [email protected]. Not max pressure, but close to book max, and I didn't have more than 1-1.5gr until I got heavier bolt lift. Can't speak to ops load, but it isn't super mild.

Though SCOTUS is so political now with zealots on one side or the other filling the seats. The balance is only in numbers, not in reasonableness when it comes to interpreting the Constitution.

Do you really see Roberts, for example, disciplining lower court judges? Or any kind of sanctions coming from a court that has a history or its own activism or compromise?

Agree with the concept… the challenge is in the execution.

Right now the Supreme Court has no meaningful ability to control the behavior of lower court judges. My hope is that giving the SC this ability would be a moderating force. I think Justice Roberts would use this power, just not as often or as visibly as the rest of us would like. But at least there would be the possibility of clamping down on rebellious lower court judges like those in the 9th Circuit. Right now the only real way to change the courts is the nuclear option of Congress and the Executive intervening and if this happens we are going to get "change" but probably not for the better.
