Specifically for handloads for long range or precision target shooting. Is it even feasible for bullet tension to be so light the bullets could be vibrated/forced slightly deeper into the cartridges during the drive to the shooting range? Do you store the cartridge bullet up, or bullet down? I understand a lot of people choose bullet up, which makes sense for protecting delicate meplats, but just for discussion sake, if there was a case/powder combination that weighed less than the bullet, would you still store it bullet up? In that case the weight of the bullet is pushing itself into the case with more force than if it were upside down and the case was pushing itself down the bullet, correct? I apologize if this is a dumb question but it just occurred to me while I was reorganizing my reloading bench.
