Putting gas checks on eliminates, or at least reduces the problem of leading in the barrel. Probably improves accuracy.
2000 fps is the top range for reasonable accuracy. 1600fps should be much better, or maybe less. Reason is that as you increase speed of lead bullets, theleads starts to melt from air friction. IMO this starts to happen seriously above 2000 fps. I've pushed some to about 2500 fps and they barely stayed on target.
My advice is to find an accurate load and increase the velocity until accuracy falls off. as always in reloading, remember that maximum loads can be dangerous, but you will have drastic accuracy loss before you reach dangerous levels.
I got my equipment years ago so it's not costing anything now. I have had no trouble getting enough scrap lead for my uses, free.

It’s amazing how a little floor jack can lift tons and tons of weight with just the flick of a handle. What’s even more amazing is that all the principals of hydraulic theory can be wrapped up in such a small package. This same package applies to any hydraulic system from the largest bulldozer to the oldest and smallest tractor. This short series will take a look at the basic layout of a simple hydraul
