Don't like to disturb the neighbors.
Jeep is used only for running out to the paper targets to change them. Steel targets are automatic resetting.
Too lazy to change primer setups, so keep one or more Dillons dedicated for large rifle, small rifle, large pistol, and small pistol in both 550 and 650 models. The 1050 is dedicated to large pistol.
Measure each bullet velocity with seven different chronographs setup on a single rail and centered at the same place. In order to double-check, have another chronograph setup on its own single rail.
Have targets setup at 10, 25, 50, 100, 150, 200, and on out a ways. At a 30 degree angle from this view, have resetting steel targets setup on a mountain at varying distances. Have another range setup at 90 degrees to this view. Need to be able to test different wind angles and their effects.
Looking back from the 1,000 yard targets.
Testing should include various terminal ballistic media. There are advocates for wet and dry newspaper, water, gelatin, Corbin's SIMTEST, and others. Tried and like them all. After testing on these, complete testing by going into the field.
