5	Best Load by Mean Group Size	Load B
6	Statistical Significance Test	0.4094472837	Redneck Explanation: If the cell is green, your test is good. If it's red, it's too close to call. Basically, "0.06" would mean there's a 6% chance that you don't have enough data yet to say which load is better. Nerd Explanation: This is the p-value, or the likelihood that the data from Load A and Load B came from the same data set. Generally, 0.05 is the gold standard, but for load development, I use 0.1 because ammo is expensive and barrels wear out, so I'm slightly more willing to risk an imperfect test.
