[QUOTE="NielsC, post: 1953929, member: 115009"] it Sounds to me like you are overthinking the entire process. In order first brass doesn’t matter As long as it is in good condition. Second you will want carbide dies so you are not messing with case lube. Third all name brand primers are fine. Fourth for powder I am using Winclean 244. It is clean and consistent. As for bullets you should probably stay with 115 grain round nose JHP. There is a lot of difference between loading for high precision rifle shooting and loading pistol cartridges. For rifles I weigh every powder charge, with pistol you use a powder dump. For my rifles COL is critical. For pistol you are not seating the bullet in the lans. COL is more a function of feeding. A simple way to look at it is just consider 1 MOA at 50 yds versus 500. I load about 1500 rounds a month 9mm and 45 ACP, and have gone through 12,000 rounds in the last six months, so I am confident in what I say. Good luck. [/QUOTE]
