Thanks again Seafire. Learning all the time. Not afraid of putting the work in. Retired now so when I'm mobile again I'll make progress quickly but only getting out once a week for a limited time and that's at night for hunting.
I guess it won't hurt to try diminishing LilGun loads dropping .2 at a time. I'll be very wary of getting one stuck in the barrel.
I hear what you're saying bout double loading. Years ago I'd have said not possible but these days a system will definitely be needed. Beginning to go into a room and wonder why I went in there. I guess the best way to avoid is to set up another press and seat the bullet straight away.
I can see why most of the data is for max loads for more accuracy and longer ranges but not required in my case. I'm happy shooting rabbits out to 150yds.
I use 4 gr of N310 with a 20gr V max in the 17AH. Great accuracy at about 2500fps. That load came out of the Varmint Hunter magazine in a article by McPherson
