[QUOTE="memtb, post: 2550267, member: 75451"] I’ve ignored this thread since it’s conception, and as it is now about to reach senior citizenship 😁…..I can’t resist any longer! This is strictly for myself, and no one else! I have many things going on in my life, and sadly shooting takes a ”backseat” to life in general….. a little envious of those that do not have other things that must be done. Once a load that adequately serves it’s purpose “I’m done“! Finances have always impacted my shooting, from the time I first started hand loading @ age 14! While I can now better afford to ”burn” components, 50+ years of being conservative with components cannot be changed! If you have achieved what is within the practical capabilities of the firearm it’s time to call it good. If the previously mentioned firearm has reached it‘s practical potential and you still feel the need to develop loads to their maximum potential…..get another firearm and start over with it! If you just feel the need to burn components and strive for perfection….get a revolver, shoot it at 200 or more yards (fairly long range for revolvers) for groups. You will not only challenge the firearm but yourself! 😉 memtb [/QUOTE]
