I know they're accurate and competitive Tac - What I'm saying is, it would be nice to have some figures/facts/results to base it on. When looking for the best accuracy for a rifle/load you can, to a great degree, eliminate the shooter and end up with measurable results. Once you have been through the load development process you, in general, know errors on the target that are out of the expected group size are down to the shooter.

In this thread we've seen a wide variety of ball/patch/loads for the same pistol - which one is working well? If the pistol/load is only capable of grouping in the 8 ring and you are keeping them all in the black, that's very good shooting. If the pistol/load is capable of keeping them within the 10 but you are only keeping them in the 8 ring, may be not so good.

What I'm saying is - where's the load development?
