A phrase that is commonly used in lots of posts.
I load a lot of handgun calibers and several rifles. Have been for some time. I do not know how to interpret this phrase. To me, it would be developing your own loads or those that are not published in any data source.
To others it may mean development of a load that is most accurate or the best velocity(using published data) in their specific pistol or rifle.
I mess around with a lot of powders and different bullets, lead, FMJ, coated , experiment a little with jacketed data convert to lead bullets but nothing extreme. I use published data so I do not consider myself as "load development" or creating a "new" load.
If one does their own loads how do you even begin to do that?
