I’m surprisingly actually veering into your line of thinking.
Butttt……
If you think those “ Hall of Fame “ Benchrest shooters haven’t done a “ Shit Load “ more testing than you , well I’m sorry we do now come to a crossroads in this conversation.
Those guys talk in thousands of an inch being the different between winning and going home with nothing .
They make their own projectiles , use the best of the best barrels , chamber their own barrels , test in tunnels , weigh cases / primers / projectiles , fine tune the ignition systems of their rifles etc etc etc .
Lets make sure the apples we are comparing are actually apples.
There is hunting loading/accuracy and Benchrest / loading accuracy .
The reason I’ve been veered down your path of thinking, is because we are dealing with Factory/semi custom Rifles that no matter how much we want to be , aren’t actually that good compared to what the real experts run .
Mate I’m with you on most of what your talking about , but ignoring the vast resources of those Benchrest guys shouldn’t be so easily considered.
It doesn’t matter what the reasons are why they are the most accurate Riflemen in the world , butttt… they are the most accurate Riflemen in the world .
Personally if they gave me some advice “ I’d listen “ .
In a Hunting/ Load scenario I’m all onboard with what basically is the latest Hornady philosophy.
If I was wanting to win a Benchrest match either local or World championship, I’d be seriously listening to the guys who have won it before.
