Spoils the whole seating depth thing he did the step before... I see a new barrel being installed at the end of testing!
Maybe I just read it wrong but sure seems like there's a lot of tail chasing going on. I used to get all wound around the axle testing loads when I was younger. Then one day I realized all I was ever doing is running like a friggin hamster on a wheel constantly testing loads. Hadn't shot at a fun target in a long, long time. Now I keep it simple and would advise anyone just starting to do the same.
