Thanks for the info briandg. Do you know why/how it's possible that a lower load can give you a higher fps than a higher load of the same powder? I've seen where people say while finding the highest fps and accuracy, they use x-amount of grains less than the max. Sometimes it's a lot less. Something similar to this, 40gr 2760fps, 41gr 2800fps, 42gr 2780fps, etc (not actual data but as an example). I used to contribute this to barrel length which is usually omitted from their loads and results, but not sure now with jmr40' post. They usually just post pwdr make, grains, bullet weight and fps. Now I'm thinking can it be the powder? Maybe the chronograph?
