To say finding accurate loads is easier with a swaged bullet VS cast/lubed VS cast coated bullets is easy to prove. To say finding accurate loads over a wide range of pressures/velocities with swaged VS cast/lubed VS coated bullets is extremely easy to prove. Th op never stated at what distances he'd be shooting. 50ft isn't that picky
