[QUOTE="locotrician, post: 260535, member: 9128"] So i have had my first custom for a few months now and i do a lot of reading on this forum nearly every day and it has become apparent to me that my reloading procedures seem sub par compared to most of you. I do what i call the basics. 1.buy what i know to be quality components 2.brass prep: trim to length, full length resize, de bur, uniform primer pocket and tumble, install primers(not in that order) 3. weigh powder to 1/10 grain (as per my rcbs electronic scale) and dump into the cases. 4. seat bullets with rcbs seater die So my questions are 1. what processes do i really need to add ? i read about sorting bullets by bearing surface but i have n idea how this is done or what the tolerance range should be if i were to do this, and i also read about sorting brass ect ect.....i know there are lots more just using this as an example 2. what is the proper order for these processes?3. what equipment should i add or change ?4. is the standard rcbs stuff really good enough when it comes to loading for long range shooting ?5. If you suggest i add anew process could you also suggest the rand and model of equipment that is recommended for that particular process. Sorry for the long post i just really wanna start taking this stuff to the next level. thanks [/QUOTE]
