I started with a total of 23 different recipes that you all have shared. This is the top loads from Results #1/#2, being reshot in groups of 3, 2 times. Each recipe got 6 rounds total. These 6 rounds groups were added to the initial round and the total was tabulated on the 9 rounds shot. A total of the top 8 recipes were tested below...
