[QUOTE="Capt RB, post: 1525811, member: 85987"] I have loads for virgin brass and fireformed brass. They are not the same in speed or seating depth for the best overall however I know that and have different profiles and dope cards for them. I also use a drop tube if I'm at case filled charges even when I do the first testing. Also if your charge is not 100% changes in shooting angle can have dramatic changes in results. I see this with faster powders mostly with poor case fills. Things to check seating pressure, Take virgin, once fired and whatever number fired brass your using. Make a load up did they feel the same? You can use a digital fishing scale on your press arm to measure and don't be surprised. Brushing the necks can help with es Annealing can also clean that up however your going to see a bit of velocity loss most of the time. Have you checked your velocity since you started to notice this change? Cool thing about all of this is you get to drag all your crap ur stuff to the range and shoot some more:cool: [/QUOTE]
