[QUOTE="hammer111, post: 1080539, member: 74806"] Ok ntg never thought of looking at hornady, but I'm loading a 140 grain bullet. 45 was recommended. But I can do 43. I only loaded 1. Ok now what I have to say next is weird beyond belief. I'm the only person in my house that loads. Nobody has been near my bench but me. Went to load a second shell. Measured 45 grains. Pour it in and it was too much. So I checked the scale , zeroed it. Weighed a penny twice. It matched what it was supposed to. Measured powder again, and again too much, 2 more times same thing. I was just about to throw the scale , when a thought entered my head. Look in the shell. Sure enough something was in there. I dug it out and it was a cleaning patch. I never had or used a patch on or near the loader or the shells. No reason too. I'm stumped, but the charge fits and good to go. Anyone else come across this. [/QUOTE]
