I was reading a Chuch Hawkes article in which he reported on some testing they did with and without flash hole deburring. They concluded it was one of the single most significant improvements for accuracy.
If you are lazy, you said no.
If you want best accuracy from your rifle, then uniform primer pockets, deburr flash hole, trim, chamfer, and segregate matched headstamp brass by weight. The further away you shoot, the closer in weight a batch of brass should be.
The brass case is the component with the most variation from hull to hull.
All my rifle brass gets this done. Handgun? No. I usually shoot handgun close up, rifle, far away.
Where they could watch the wind flags while dosing off.
I am lazy... but not in reloading... only cutting grass, taking out garbage, painting the deck, etc.!If you are lazy, you said no.

I think Walkalong hit the nail on the head! Except I have to switch action/shooter, and add a crisp trigger between shooter and action!Chuck is off base IMO.
Good barrels and good bullets, then a good action, then a good shooter, and then in micro measurements, everything else.
If theory got out with benchrest shooters that abstaining from conjugal visitation with their wives for two weeks before a match they would build a separate bedroom near their bench....
