I got the Lee 3 die set, case lube, and plenty of .32 bullets, but I've never loaded a bottleneck cartridge before. Is there any special method when sizing the cases?
Do I have to trim cases each time I load them or is it something to just keep an eye on and trim when necessary?
Also, given that bore diameters are all over with 7.62x25 pistols, I decided to slug the bore of the Zastava I have and it turns out the groove diameter is .312, which is great because it means I can use 85 grain XTP's and those are pretty cheap at 20 cents a bullet.
