Exsqueeze me??! Moi is loading his own???
Trust nothing my friend. If you intend to make a run at this in earnest, then you'll be measuring and weighing everything.

Consistency is everything in this game, even the temperature and humidity in your loading room when your loading.

Here is a link to a nice (not over the top) article on ammo. It has some links in it to assist in other facets of the game.

Thank you.

I haven’t personally seen or read anything that shows definitive accuracy issues by not “breaking in” a new barrel. So, generally I just shoot it with however many rounds I brought that particular day. Also, I believe you will not see the actual accuracy of a barrel till it fouls up properly. What I usually do with a new barrel is to shoot how ever many rounds I brought then, clean it really well at home base. The next few range trips after that get no cleaning till I see the accuracy falling off. I will run a bore snake through it every now and then though.

Convince me otherwise and I might listen.
