Kel ... you said a mouthful ! Work up a load , Practice . Change powder charge and primer , Practice . Increase powder charge a little more , Practice . In between all of this is the use of a chronograph and data keeping ... not to mention the cleaning of the firearm ! But it is all worth it when questing for that elusive bug hole group!
I have to share this story with all of you Firearm/Weapon aficionados , I was loading 44 mags for years and I wanted a ( then it was new ) A ported .444 Marlin lever action rifle . Handloading convinced my wife that I should make the purchase . I mearly pointed out how ' economical ' it would be because I already had a shitload of .44 bullets , primers , shellholders and powder all I had to do was buy the dies and casings ! Hell ! This was a deal to good to pass up . Well the little ' on sale ' light went off in Mrs. Polo's head and the rest is Gun Folk Lore which I tell around the club at least once a year by request . See . It really PAYS to reload !
