I keep chambers loaded with the guns in rotation. Not having to unload sd round/s to shoot to practice, having dedicated practice guns. No need to worry about set back from constant chambering. I worry more about mucking the rim up so the extractor doesn't get a solid a purchase as it should on a new round. Making sure to load the round back in the mag [ to rechamber it ] with a clean spot on the rim, not on a gouged/deformed areas previously grabbed by the extractor
