It hasn't stopped raining up here in New England in like 3 weeks and I want to work up some loads. Does shooting in the rain effect accuracy to any significant degree?

yeah that's what I was thinking...anything that the bullet hits would affect the flight. Just wondering how much.

If it is a light rain and you are shooting at 100 yards it is not that big a deal.
If it is a heavy rain with gusty wind then it will mess you up.

As long as the conditions are consistent, shot-to-shot, there is nothing to worry about. I would shoot better in a light, steady rain, because I could see the light wind changes at different ranges in the rain better than in the mirage.
