Come on up here and shoot our Longrange side matches and you will find that almost with-out exception you will have the better part of a day to check your rifles sight settings and in at least one shoot 2 + days to practice on the range with targets out to 1,154 yards ... The close targets are 200 yards ...
My Highwall seems to do right well given half a chance ...

Howdy Jabez.
Although I don't keep a 'record' of group size, I do keep some of the more important targets that show both good and bad grouping of certain powders. This helps me from buying the 'inaccurate' stuff and wasting my time in the future.
One other thing I have done with my 'Pairs' of pistols is Chronograph EACH pistol.
I have one set of Ruger Vaq. that actually have a velocity difference of about 25 fps with identical loads. And my Chronograph results were consistent with varies powders and bullet weights.
One pistol just has a higher velocity average than the other pistol.
..........Widder
Howdy Pard;
I have one 4 5/8 inch gun that turns in higher velocities than my 5 1/2 inch gun with most
powders, both are in .45 Colt .... I have Two 4 5/8 inch and one 5 1/2 in guns that I use for Cowboy they shoot good for Windage
with every powder tried so far ,,, With the exception of one gun using Win.231 powder this one gun shoots a
foot left at 25 yards when using my standard load of 231 .... All my other guns including rifles shoot this
load right down the middle ... So if I'm using 231 this gun gets to take a break from the action...
With Promo, Red Dot , True Blue , 700X , etc. and 3F it shoots on center ...
My records are very complete as to velocities and other varibles in loading ammo ....
All the best this Turkey season and for Christmas to you and yours ...

My 92 is a 24 inch Oct. Barreled version I load the "Speer" 300 gr. FP bullet at 1,500 Fps. and it will keep 5 shots under 4 inches at 100 meters using the factory open sights....
It will also keep my Match loads of a full case load of Goex 3F under a Soft Cast 270 grain RNFP bullet lubed with SPG in a sub 4 inch group at 100 Meters ...
Both loads will take a big Alberta deer ....
