i mostly load on a progressive press with auto indexing, automatic powder drop, case feeder,,,,,,,the whole nine yds with all the bells and whistles, but for the last few weeks ive become interested in loading small batches (25rds or so) with precision that ive not employed before.
i have set my powder measure a few 10ths shy of the load i want, remove the case guide so i can pull the case after the measure, and pulling the charged cases out of the shell plate after charging (before the seating die) and stacking them in a ammo box with the mouths up.
then i just weigh each one and use a trickler to bring each one up to exactly where i want to be. (i then just seat the bullets on my little s.s. partner press)
i find it very relaxing and im excited to see my results at the range.
(i also find that with medium length stick like 4895 that my initial charges vary up to 2-3 tenths)
anyone else ever weigh every single charge?
