I very seldom shoot factory loads in my bolt guns. I keep detailed notes and consult several manuals to cross check data. Most of the time, duplicate loads are not listed but they will be pretty close unless there is a major disconnect.

I hardly ever shoot handloads in my semi autos. I don't know what my hangup is but I have some sort of phobia about it. I don't have that issue with pistols but I never use handloads for defense.

I am just a little weird that way. I really do enjoy reloading and I reload a lot.
