Videos tagged with Hodgdon CFE Blackout

This video demonstrates a rapid method for identifying accurate rifle load nodes using a half-ladder test. The presenter uses a 7.62x39 Ruger Ranch rifle and Hodgdon CFE Blackout powder, increasing the charge by 2 grains per round across 12 shots. By plotting velocities from a chronograph against powder charges, the viewer can identify 'nodes' where velocity is consistent, indicating a potential accuracy sweet spot. The presenter then selects a charge within a node for further testing, achieving a sub-MOA group on the first attempt.
