[QUOTE="Shooter00, post: 835704, member: 70388"] When developing a load, the more things are consistent, the easier a time you'll have at finding that honey load. I'd sort out the longest cases, all being either new or once fired and trim them all to the trim to length. You can always use the shorter ones for production, they'll be accurate enough to kill. Trim, chamfer, debur, uniform all the R&D cases, making everything as uniform as you can. Measure every powder charge, trickle to desired weight. I seat the bullet half way, turn the case 180 degrees, and complete the stroke. Just what I was taught way back when. With less variation in the components as you develop, the better results you'll have. The slight inconsistencies of the production lot won't be noticeable when you hunt, like cases that are a bit shorter, or .10gr of powder difference. Enjoy! It's man-therapy [/QUOTE]
