    With the exception of shooters whose passion is target, or benchrest, etc is there any advantage in doing this, or playing with seating depth, neck tension and a whole host of other things if you are achieving accuracy that you are happy with as things stand.
    Puffin didnt mention variables like barrel temperature rise, unconscious changes in cheek weld pressure, shifts in front support loading, bullet weight deviations, barometric effects etc etc. All of these either in conjunction or singly would surely result in erroneous results that could hide any real differences. Im guilty as most of us probably are of picking one result out of a test shooting series that fits what I wanted to see, only to find out it was an error due to some other factors changing.
