I've been using Dan Newberry's OCW approach for about 10 years now. It works great! His method of controlling the variables of fouling and barrel heating are great. I've used OCW to develop loads in all my rifles and have successfully used it for 45 ACP in the 1911.

Thanks.
This should be of interest for a hand loader.

I think this was the first article I ever read on reloading, and the first method I tried.

Still the method I use today.

Government office attracts the power-mad, yet it's people who just want to be left alone to live life on their own terms who are considered dangerous.

History teaches that it's a small window in which people can fight back before it is too dangerous to fight back.
