[QUOTE="Old Rooster, post: 2362529, member: 108576"] You are exactly where everyone here was at one time. Write everything down!Even loads that didn't work out good enough.Give every load lot numbers so you can go back to that data. I'm sure you have a full length die even though you said you don't want to use one.I started out neck sizing but soon ran into cartridges not going all the way into my chamber plus you need to bump your neck back 2-3 thousandths.On semi autos I go .003 to .004 and .002 to .003 for bolt actions.. Remember no question is a dumb question.We have all been there and we made mistakes but since we write everything down we found our mistake and won't make that one again. I started at 001 in 1967 and now I am up to lot # 367R R for rifle and P is for pistols. I also load for shotgun so they have different lot#'s. Enjoy the rabbit hole [/QUOTE]
