I think we need to look atthe different types ofhandloaders to better understand what is being said here.There are those of us that spend a great deal of time developing loads and testing different component combinations and seating depthsuntil we discover which load will provide the best combination of accuracy,velocity and bullet performance on game.These are the people that really understand the concept of load development.Then there are those people thatsimply choose aspecificload printed in a manual and load it up and hunt with it.They assume that just because it is a handload,it must offer superior accuracy and performance and if it doesn't they condemn handloading as a wasted effort.These people may consider themselves handloaders,but they really have no comprehension of load development and their efforts often produce results that offer no advantages over factory loads.
