Have seen some of his other YouTube stuff, which is what caused me to think FOS....
One prime example: Testing loads for primer choice and making decisions based on SD estimates from three shot samples.
I missed that one!
The other deal is believing that measuring case-head expansion is an accurate way to "measure" pressure. There are way too many variables for that work consistently--including how much expansion the measurer believes is safe.
This has been proven many times in piezo labs, but one of the interesting back-stories in the business that I came across years ago was that when started making bullets in Lewiston, Idaho they bought a crusher-type pressure tester, then the business standard. But nobody could get consistent results from it, perhaps due to temperature fluctuations, since Lewiston can get both cold in the winter and very hot in summer.
But no matter the reason, they decided top use case-head measurement for pressure-testing when putting together their first few loading manuals--which had a reputation for pretty hot loads. Eventually Speer did get a pressure-machine that worked, and after that the loads in their manuals became tamer. (These days they use piezo-electronics to test their loads, which are far more in line with today's other loading manuals.
