I’m reloading for a 1911 and I was testing loads to determine what recipe for all 500-1000 rounds.
So, I load 5 of each charge weight and shoot them into a 15yd target. Recoil was mild at the lightest 2 loads and pretty heavy at max loads.
Groups were shot unrested..maybe a bad idea....accuracy wasn’t great, but the heaviest charges were a little better.
Also heavier charges were better aligned poi to poa.
So, how do you select the load to move on with loading up some training ammo?
