    SD of my reloads are usually between 3 -9

    Compare factory to factory tho and the creeds gunna be doing like 2600 if your lucky. Push it hard and you're close to 3k.

    Id rather have practical useable velocity node for the intended purpose below max pressure. Longer case life, longer barrel life, and a bit of pressure contingency for other variables

    Not to mention the box ammo from Hornady is such high quality now that for hunting application or people that shoot less than 20 rounds a year it is more than consistent/powerful enough.
