    If you are loading a standard case for a hunting rifle just load them and go hunting , if starting from scratch with new projectiles and powder do your standard work up procedure when you get the best load,
    load the rest of the cases and go hunting, unless you are target shooting or hunting at extreme ranges fire forming is a waste of time and components,
    You will only see any difference between new and fire formed cases at ranges past 500 metres and then only with top of the range equipment and excellent shooting technique.
