Reloading: 175-gr Sierra Match King and Tipped Match King

PLEASE, any helpful tips with be appreciated. I kept my mistakes in this video as well. This was my very first reloaded batch of .308 Winchester. I try out Sierra Match King and Sierra Tipped Match King, both 175grains. Hornady brass preparation was depriming with a Lee Universal Deprimer, tumbling, deburring the flash hole, ream out any primer crimps, full length resize, trim to minimum length, remove burrs, prime, charge with powder, seat bullet to lengths, no crimp.
The TMKs came out HOT right at 43 grains and appeared to throw up all over the target. Therefore, I will retry the TMKs with a lower powder charge starting at 41 grains and with the same preparations to give it another "Go". Future video on that.
