The range where I worked had a giant Benchrest league.
Many of them would load their ammo right at the bench (not IN the matches though) Those guys didn't weigh their charges, they threw them all with powder measures. Of course they were higher end, presumably more accurate/consistent models.
When I dabbled with that stuff, in terms of shooting pure groups, my biggest improvements came (loading wise) from group matching my bullets. Weighing them all out and grouping them is as small a variation as I could.
I used to have a big line drawn on my bench like a large ruler that I used for this…. 150.0 grains would go in the center say. 150.3 grains would go on this line…. 159.7 on that line… 149.6 over there...
