What you say about proper size and alloy is correct but there still exists a lot of problems with leading, not everyone has the advantage of picking the correctly sized bullets with the right alloy for all velocities and calibers.
I will respectfully request to disagree... it just ain't all that hard to fit the projectile to the bore, and that is the overwhelming majority of the issue.

Alloy, sizing, and lube, in that order. Simple as that. Most commercial casters sell something that is too hard, sized too small, and has a lube much too hard for the average application. The results are disastrous, and I know, because I bought long before I ever cast my own.

If you know what to look for, all these issues are very easily answered, even if you buy your projectiles.
