When I started my Uncle told me "keep in mind, you are making a potential bomb". That might sound a bit alarmist but I've never forgotten it because done improperly that's exactly what you can end up with. As others have said stay focused on the task at hand!
I've not loaded for 7.62 but I learned each of my rifles liked a specific bullet and power for the best accuracy. ( I was loading 22.2250 and 6MM Rem for groundhogs and other "vermin") I think discovering what your rifle prefers through trial and error will yield the best accuracy.
I also agree that for your mission a good single stage press would serve you well.. I would also weigh every powder charge individually when trying to eek out every ounce of accuracy.
