What distance for tuner testing?

[Fuj]

I preach vigorously about not moving a tuner randomly and expecting to get predictable results. I strongly encourage you to shoot the test target I posted a few posts back, exactly like it says. Work up a load, shoot the test and send me a pic. I'll go ever it in detail with you, gladly. I'm happy to help but I can't make ya take me up on that offer. All I can do is offer it.

Mike, I think you missed the point of what I did. I was not purposely
trying to tune a load. I was using a piece of equipment to have a look
To close out the day. What you need to realize is that I'm working on a
new cartridge no one on this green earth has seen yet. I have 7 different
bullets to be tested with 8 different powders. Last thing I want to do is
have a tuner involved to create a page in a manual. You just don't see
tuners in a reloading manual......This work that I just published here was
to have a look at 300 since all the 100 yard work was done, Playing around
so to speak. Nothing more, nothing less.

Ok. Happy to help when you get ready to shoot that test. You did see enough to see changes, which has some value. Some would even say within a small range, but I've never had to move 6 marks before. That's pretty massive and likely skips over a sweet spot. You'll see what I'm talking about when you're ready and want to.

It's not very often that I get people to want to shoot more than the test target requires be fired. Lol! But, you did get to see something and we can go from there. Thanks!
