Yes, again I find myself in agreement with @Varminterror
If I was to state a goal here it would be simply to lean something meaningful that helps improve my reloading and shooting abilities as it relates to percision and accuracy with a rifle.
It was not my intent to represnt myself as a pioneer in the field of “reload-ology”. I apologize if I came across that way. I’ve only been doing this for a few years.
My biggest constraint is time. When I don’t have enough of it to test something to myself I’m perfectly happy to start with what works for others, particularly people who are champions or do this stuff for a living (Brian Litz fills both of those categories) Having said that, there’s always a nagging thought in my head that says, “one of these days I’m going to prove that for myself”
My career has also involved data driven analysis. As a yong staff engineer I used to do designed experiments and process validations as part of my duties. Now I sit behind a desk managing others who do it. I recall a story back then when we were attempting to perform a designed experiment on an injection molding machine. 32 different process controls affecting time, temperature and pressure. Some directly proportional to each other, some inversely proportional, all related and confounding.
Where do begin with such a daunting task?
Well, you start with the machine operator who’s been running that press for 20 plus years who has process set ups on note cards in a reciepe box.
