[QUOTE="TOM H, post: 665634, member: 306"] I use one of the BR type click adjustment powder measure so I don't weight powder as I know what each click equals in grs of the powder I want to use. When I first started back in the early 80's for my hunting rifles loading at the range I'd weight all my loads like you normally do but I didn't seat a bullet. When I got to the range and all set up I'd seat bullet with the Wilson die than fire and I'd take the fire case neck size seat primer them dump powder in from one case and if load didn't look good I'd move on to next test load. I had the whole range set up for my BR rifles at the time so adding was a big expensive . I had one of the Jones measure at the time then when Bruno started making his I got one and still have it. With new lots of powder I check weight/clicks and sometimes depend on amount of powder I'll split that into 1/2 or 1/3 that gets it lot closer to actual powder weight I want to use. [/QUOTE]
