As I've looked back at the data, it seems the rifle likes somewhere around 3050 FPS.. The 44.5 load averaged slower than the 44.3 load, that's where I think my reloading ability limits me or maybe that is just margin of error on my chronograph. Either way, the true test is does this data repeat itself.

44.1 = 3053, 3012, 3040, 3026, 3047

44.3 = 3033, 3044, 3060, 3060, 3057

44.5 = 3023, 3012, 3027, 3031, 3046

44.7 = 3094, 3060, 3070, 3081, 3079

Would any of you recommend taking it down to tenth grain increments from say 44.1 to 44.6 and maybe do 3 loads at .010 off and 3 at .030 off at each tenth grain increment?
