[QUOTE="cynjon, post: 2866676, member: 110275"] I loaded up a bunch of 9mm for a pistol class and had one round not fire because the primer was seated upside down. My Dillon will flip a primer every once in a blue moon and I just didn't catch that one. No harm, no foul. However, I have pulled a few batched down before because I wasn't 100% sure that all the rounds had powder as I let the powder hopper get lower than I was comfortable with. Never found one that didn't have powder in it, though. :rolleyes: Like MagnumManiac, I always load bottleneck cartridges in batches...Prime, put in a loading block, drop/weigh powder, double-check weight on a second scale, dump into case. Before moving on to bullet seating, I always perform a visual check with a flashlight to make sure none of the powder charges look different. I find it's easier to get into a rhythm doing that than it is to prime/charge/seat an individual cartridge in sequence. [/QUOTE]
