Yes it is. Don't think I have 100 rounds on it yet. Can't wait to run this ladder again next weekend.
I choose new brass because all my fired Starline brass is from the howa I had.
Didn't want to mix that into my cz. So I know going in that the first ladder would be short of full case capacity of fired brass.
In the end staball is going to be slower then say h4895, cfe223 or lever with that bullet but still more then enough juice to kill game out to typical hunting ranges.
I shot some 129 ablr's with h4895 at 25.5 grains and it had less drop. So even without running that load over the graph I know it's faster.
I did forget to log the average,hi,low,sd and es of that ladder.
Will make sure I get it next weekend.
