Find an accurate load and go ventilate some critters. My particular .280 happens to be finicky and likes bullets snugged up to the lands. Not going hog wild for velocity increases case life and decreases recoil. Components aren't getting any cheaper, so I don't waste them.
+1 in my opinion. Components aren't as cheap or easy to find anymore. So unless only a hot load will produce the very best group, I don't run them that way anymore.
