Never said they didn’t work. I said they weren’t as good as sierras and hornadys out of those barrels. Being loyal to a good brand is nice and all, but there are other barrel manufacturers out there that make just as good, and some maybe better, barrels as bartelin.
In one instance I mentioned crimping. And I was specific about only having done it in an ar15 when none of the combinations I had on hand would work. And it worked. .004" crimp and it got me under moa and an SD around 10-12 vs 17-18. I crimp nothing else, not even 308 gas gun loads. Well, and 22lr but that's a whole other debate we won't get into.
Shaw makes custom actions, custom rifles, and custom barrels. It’s not just stock barrels for stock guns. Probably should dig deeper before assuming
You gotta stop making yourself look stupid by assuming things. Add a zero to the end of that 200, that’s how much it cost me. You probably should learn to read, I mentioned I have a bartelin barrel. In fact I have a couple of them.
I used to enjoy how you stirring up all the know it all trolls that ruin this sub-forum . Now I dislike you just as much as them . You are just another ankle biter screaming for attention . Not very bright either.
Ammo manufactures have people that work up their loads. They do both accuracy and pressure testing.
But why do their loads work so good in so many different rifles? What do they know that we don't? They're for sure not loading each round with the care that we are. But most factory fodder seems to work in so many different chambers, barrels, twist rates (to a certain degree.)
I've have lots of Federal brass that I've used (and still use on occasion) and they've performed well for me also. The facts are that the Federal brass is relatively soft and doesn't stand up to high pressure loads for very long where primer pockets get too loose. There's been many reports for them only lasting only 4 or 5 reloads. I've not had that experience as I've always got over 10 firings on them and my current batch has been fired 10 times and I run moderate loads and occasionally pushing max pressures. My Federal brass is not as uniform as some others, like Lapua, Peterson or Alpha brass, but with a little work they can be.
Use a one shot ladder to find where you begin to see pressure signs, as this typically helps determine a good starting point. Use a 3 or 5 shot ladder on a series of targets that you can see the relationship from one group to another and the shapes of the groups. Do it at 100 yds. so you don't have weather reports involved. It's only what you see on targets that's going to really help you with load development.

You suggest a 1 shot ladder looking for velocity flat spots.
You are just leaving it up to chance.You suggest a 1 shot ladder looking for velocity flat spots.
I think you are. I am not sure why you are always swinging your purse around. Makes you seem more like a petulant blowhard than any sort of expert.

We know from stats, one shot chrono ladders don't work. We know from statistics why chrono ladders show false flat spots and it has to do with sample size. Not more powder not creating more pressure.
You want me to believe everyone who shoots f class is doing load development the same way?
Before I found this place, federal and remington were my preferred choices. Always got decent results. If I could get down to 1/2" at a hundred I was happy. I rarely shot across a chronograph in those days though.
No, he is saying the method you are using is a random charge weight aelector based on over lapping deviation because of the small sample size.
ing you.
what an idiot
