[QUOTE="7mmHCFR, post: 482893, member: 31328"] RT2506 you are a wise man at the range :D I collect mine at my range during our annual site in weekend which is open to the public !! I recently posted this as my process for new bulk brass from the #4 guys: What I do with 100 pieces new brass is: 1) full length resize (wipe off lube) 2) trim 3) debur flashole 4) chamfer case mouth outside/inside 5) uniform primer pocket 6) tumble Then I weigh each case and I sort them into lots. With Win or Rem brass I usually am happy to get 50 out of 100 that are + or - 1grain. This insures fairly uniform inside volume. I call this my "prime lot". The other 50 I call my "load lot". Out of the load lot 50 there always seems to be 5-10 cases that are the same + or - 1 grain weight as the "prime lot". These I use to develop my load for that rifle. Once I find what the rifle likes I load up the prime lot and make the firing line hot ! Hope this helps [/QUOTE]
