The guy you quoted, is a 2 or 3 time National muzzleloader champion.
It certainly depends on exactly what a shooter is trying to accomplish. If its hunting accuracy, its one thing. If its extreme accuracy, its a total different matter IMO.
Just a 2gr difference if measuring by volume, or even weight for that matter, can make a significant difference in long range accuracy and groups. If its only hunting accuracy, then that's different.
............... I could go into a total routine of how a measure the BH209, with the brass measure, but suffice it to say there was never a .2 grain difference in charges...…....
This is what I like about this sight, when you think you have it figured up comes someone , who really knows what he is talking about , just shows you never know. Thanks Chick!!!!!!!!
If you're keeping all your volume charges to less than .2, which I assume you do mean 2/10, you're part of a rare group.
Actually, we were discussing 0.2 grains difference, 0.2857 grains in a VOLUMETRIC measure, not 2.0 grains WEIGHT difference. That would be 2.857 VOLUMETRIC grains difference.
For those VOLUMETRIC challenged folks, it's probably best to WEIGH your charges. Hope you have a good scale, and not some cheap digital that will lie to you?
Thanks.
There's a huge difference between CF and muzzleloaders. Although some things remain the same, there are many more contributing factors involved with muzzleloaders and shooting tiny groups. The key though with both, is consistency.
No doubt there is a huge difference, but, measuring powder is measuring powder.
