[QUOTE="Mikecr, post: 223644, member: 1521"] Well let me say this; It's very easy to suggest that nothing done matters, when you don't actually know what does matter. Some guy shot alright in competition using crooked ammo... Doesn't mean straight ammo is a waste of time. He miraculously discovered that seating bullets against the lands, raises pressure.. Wow If there was ever a barrel maker who knew what matters in AMMO, or even what makes one BARREL better than another, everything in shooting today would be way different. The fact is, they don't. They make barrels like everybody else & we buy them -like everybody else. Now, I don't know the answers either. Never claimed to. But I don't take stock in clan loar, heresay, anecdotal conclusions, or anything out of competition -as significant in the real world. Afterall, most competitors, don't win jack. I'll say that in my experience, the best ammo you can make doesn't hurt a thing. And anything that helps YOUR barrel/ammo shoot better is a good thing -for YOU. If your chamber likes new/loose brass better you can bet there is a reason, whether understood or not. But it doesn't really apply to everybody else.. Some of us have reduced ES and improved LR shooting by matching h20 capacity, which is only practical with fully fireformed brass. Some of us have to fireform just to produce our finished cartridges and get headspace right. Most of us re-use brass, simple as that. I don't see how any conclusions can be drawn across the board though. [/QUOTE]
