Ladder method = Creighton AUdette, AFAIK.

Good method; gets me a great load often after only 10 rounds or so.

Dave P,

Follow Rn22723's link to Dan Newberry's site. He's got a section on instances in which Audette ladders don't work out, which I've seen a few times. They often do work, but for people without access to ranges beyond 100 yards, Newberry's round robin method is easier to distinguish a change with. Anyway, I think you'll find it an interesting read.
