[QUOTE="ShootnMathews, post: 2790810, member: 59915"] All excellent points. I haven’t given up but I think I’m just going to shelve the more accurate idea for a while. I have tried and tried to get a really accurate load with this virgin Lapua brass and I can’t break 1/2 moa consistently. So I think I’ll just maybe use the best load I’ve found to finish out firing 50 rounds of the 100 new pieces and then I’ll start back on a second loading. From a little testing the second loading on the Lapua shot much better. And I’ll just save the other 50 new pieces for later. Reloading components are so scarce and pricey that I’m not happy about burning up cans of powder and boxes of primers Chasing a load. So for this hunting year 3/4 moa is just going to be good enough. I am cushions on the brass. Tonight I’m going to fully prep some of the Hornady and Lapua fired brass and weigh the water content. I know I’ve got another firing in the Federal brass. I may just load a couple boxes of it for season and run it. [/QUOTE]
