   I use a starting load with a 87 gn pill to fire form cases. They are quite accurate for game or paper. After fire forming I reckon you should anneal them as they tend to get brittle necks a bit...

    I've always thought the best use of a 3 shot group in load development is to exclude a load. 3 shots into 15mm might grow as more rounds are fired, but a 40 or 50mm 3 shot group will never get...
