[QUOTE="Tulsa Reiner, post: 2022704, member: 75815"] 445: there are no stupid questions here. 95+% of the participants are way smarter and more experienced than I am, and they will gladly explain things to you, as witnessed by the responses to your post. Working up a new load consists of 2 important steps (after you select your powder and bullet), which are determining "Optimum (powder) Charge Weight," and optimum seating depth of your bullet. The OCW is pretty simple to accomplish, as you will see in this thread. Seating depth involves a lot more testing of different loads (depths), and I have decided is an art form. I've learned from the LRH forum that some people will say do the OCW test first, and later the seating depth test. But others will say do the opposite. Nonetheless, learn and enjoy. In the last two years, I have learned more from intensively reading and applying what I read here than in the previous 33 years of casual reloading. Beware: IT IS AN ADDICTION! [/QUOTE]
