When you get right down to it, a hand loaded "anything" beats a factory loaded "something".
I can't imagine why anyone would consider competing with factory ammo !?!? I guess in a police sniper competition it would be required (and the taxpayers are footing the bill for the ammo). Getting past the economics of it is - handloaded ammo will always shoot better. And NO - it doesn't have to be Lapua brass.
