Problem is that many mould designers and most handloaders still think in terms of bore/groove when fitting a bullet, guess at how much over groove to size (instead of measuring things other than a barrel slug), and TOTALLY ignore the throat diameter/shape/length.

It took me a number of years to grasp this concept and yet it is critical for accuracy & performance. I'm still learning but the more I learn the less I realize I know. That is what keeps this hobby fresh and fascinating for me.
