I, too, have had some concern over being able to load ammo that shoots better than off the shelf factory stuff. I did achieve that, but it took some effort and with only select loads, not across the board.

I got some contract overrun "police/sniper" 308's from Norma loaded with 168 Match Kings. It was hard to equal, let alone beat.
High end match ammo is in another category.
Across the board off the shelf ammo, you can usually beat with select hand loads.
Off the shelf Creed ammo compared to other off the shelf ammo is just about in a class of its own.
