I was loading 800x 10mm's today with my new setup and found that I was getting really great and consistent results. I was weighing every charge with my pro2000 and worst case was +/- 0.2 grns but better then 92% were with in +/- 0.1 grns. I got bored with the consistency after about 80 rnds so I quit and just made the rest of the ammo with spot checks.

The key appears to be shaking the uniflow in my setup. What I did was splice in the uniflow into a hornady actuator so I can bell, prime, expand and drop powder all on station 2. This station is part of the removable plate and it gets a lot of shaking during operation of the press.

Consider this if you like 800x or something like it. I will have to rethink my 800x usage as I used to have a bit more swing in the dispensing then I am getting now.

I am new but is it not dangerous to prime and powder on the same station??

Nah. It's primed first, irregardless, so it matters not. :)

That's good to know, Peter. In my experience, 800X metered like corn flakes, and was a pain to use, even though it's probably the best powder I've found for heavy bullet 10mm loads. I'll have to give some thought as to how to induce vibration into my loading routine with the powder measure for 800X.

One of the fellows here posted about using one of those little mini vibrators tied to his measure. :scrutiny:
