[QUOTE="Pdvdh, post: 2380797, member: 4191"] First I had to concern myself with proper annealing. I anneal with a torch and rotate case shoulders in the flame with a battery powered drill. Now I see a Thread last week and learned I have to concern myself with proper primer seating force and depth. And proper and consistent shoulder setback. I uniform all my primer pockets to a consistent depth with a K&M primer pocket uniforming tool. I don't measure primer seating force or depth. I prime with the K&M hand held priming tool. Nice stout tool for setting primers. That's about as far as I'm willing to take it, because the process can become exhausting for a guy that doesn't need every bullet to shoot thru one hole at 200yds. But I appreciate the input on advanced reloading techniques, all the same. [/QUOTE]
