One more question that needs answering.
Do variations in bullet length/weight affect accuracy?
I know that differences in primer/powder amounts, brass dimensions/hardness,
bullet shape, crimp tension, seating depth/angle all cause variations in trajectories,
but I've begun to wonder if bullet weight and length are contributing to trajectory spread?
If there are problems with bullet uniformity during manufacture, how much do those variations affect results?
How do I determine if these differences affect accuracy?
Basic physics says they do. But is it verifiable, or will it be lost in the other variables?
Length and twist affect stability.
Weight and motive force/time determine velocity.
This might be a bit beyond my capabilities, but it ought to keep me occupied.
