    The component manufacturers are not going to be happy with such candid comments about "the shooter being the weakest link". True but !

    Some Hornady G1 BC values vs the Litz numbers : 140ELDM .646/Litz .587 ; 143ELDX .625/Litz .581 ; 147ELDM .697/Litz .617.

    In your case (being new and still learning) I would suggest to stick with the very descend load you posted a picture of and get some trigger time and practice instead !!! Once you can honestly say that you can shoot better then the load, go back and see if you can optimize it. But at the moment I have a feeling that you are the biggest variable in the game and not the load. Not meaning it in a offensive way at all.
    No offence taken. Good advice which I am happy to follow
