In this episode of Reloading Basics, Steve and I take the next step in troubleshooting accuracy and velocity deviations from Part 3. I fire the M855 clone rounds with old primers, along with my 75gr loads using Remington primers. Steve tests the M855 clones first with old primers, then with fresh ones—seeing some improvement, but still not great results.

After the range session, I break down all the data using my custom Excel spreadsheet, showing you exactly how these changes affected accuracy and velocity. If you’re serious about precision reloading, this is where the details matter.

🔹 Did the new primers make a difference?
🔹 How did the 75gr loads perform?
🔹 What does the data say about consistency?

Let’s dig in.
