[QUOTE="Troutslayer2, post: 434011, member: 25190"] I'm no expert but I've been turning out great ammo for over a year for factory rifles. I finally got a Wilson case trimmer last month, up until now, I didn't have enough brass growth to need one. I still do not have anything to turn case necks. I do not have anything to measure runout. I do not really have anything to measure of the ogive of the bullet, although I can do this with some rod stops by chambering a dummy round and measuring from the muzzle. I do not know how to go about annealing my cases. I have never weight sorted anything, but I think I would if I had a digital scale. In all reality, there are some things that you need to do and some things that are possibly superfluous. If the end result is safe ammo to shoot animals with there are a lot of things that you read about on here that you do not need. A good reloading manual tells you what you NEED to do, a lot of threads on here tell you what you could do to make things more accurate. IMO- the best thing you can do with a factory hunting gun is to install a magazine that will allow you to put the bullet closer to the lands. Second best thing is probably bedding it. [/QUOTE]
