Hi
I started reloading earlier this year due to the ammo problem. Reloading 380, 38 sp, 9mm, 40 and 45 handgun ammo. I have in the past few weeks started stopping just before powder charge and bullet seating and putting the brass fully cleaned, primed and case expanded into zip loc bags. This allows me to choose exactly which bullet and powder charge I wish to use. Example on the 9's I usually go with a 115 bullet but sometimes I shoot 147 bullets and vary the charge depending on where I am actually shooting. I also have several 9's to feed . It is 9s. 40s, 45 that I am doing like this. I can not see any major down sides to this as it really just takes a very short time to add powder and crimp. Am I missing anything here? The only thing I can see is if I stored the partly reloaded bullet outside of a ziploc.
