Thanks for going through the effort to demonstrate this. I have a couple comments, if you will. When you first introduced the data from the book that you were referencing, you transposed the upper limits and read the data from the line below Varget. It was not a crisis since the max grains were the same, but the velocities and pressure you cited were not from Varget, but from the powder on the next line below. Transposing like that could be pretty bad if the max levels were different. If you are going to make a video regarding developing loads you gotta have attention to details.
Secondly, I was just thinking you might suggest it a good idea to inspect fired cases instead of just flipping them off the table since you don’t know how your rifle is going to respond to the charges you are testing until they are fired...granted you did not seem to have any sort of stiffness in extraction, but you might give some good tips for folks trying to learn.

Great constructive criticism. I will have to learn to keep some of this in mind when creating the videos. I myself need to learn that I can't expect everyone to just automatically know about all the sub topics of the things you just suggested without taking the time to add them in. Thanks for the feedback!
