I did realize that I was firing too long when testing my empty coil for OHMs, quickly degrading the integrity, and that I shouldn't tighten the post screws all the way down and then decide to open them back up and move the coil. But also a bit of practice and I think a lot of dumb luck.

Well, I think dumb luck is a lot more likely after a bit of practice.
