Hi all,
I am new to reloading. I have been taking my time doing a lot of reading and planning. Last weekend I did some testing of 4 different loads. All loads were identical except I used 3 different types of brass and the 4th load I tested for any differences from my case length being 1.750 and 1.745 of the same brass type (yes, I'm new to reloading any might of been a little too OCD from things I read. lol)
The thing I have been wondering all week and cannot find any information about is why my groups were at different parts of the target. I was stuck with only being able to shoot from the 25 yd range since all the 50 and 100 lanes were full. At 25 yards between 2 different AR's, the windage was spread about 1 inch between the 3 different types of brass. The loads shot tight groups within each type of brass and the elevations were all close.
I was expecting some velocity and elevation differences between the different brass but would different brass affect the windage?
