[QUOTE="Muddyboots, post: 1873307, member: 63925"] So I cleaned up bench, went through my rifles and was thinking Now What? The I realized, I haven't cleaned my dies in a long time. Boy was I shocked and embarrassed on what I found! I couldn't believe how ugly they were deep inside just out of sight until I ran a patch into them with solvent. I can't even understand how I was getting good ES and SD numbers or consistent CBTO measurements. SO just sharing if you are looking for something to do during idle time that a lot of us are under at this time, look at your dies for potential cleaning. I am a lot more fastidious than what I found and it was a slap in the face on what I do so it was a really good lesson in humility to realize that I forgot something very important part of reloading consistency. So my bad is maybe your reminder or ignore if you do this and can't understand how anyone could forget to do so?:eek: [/QUOTE]
