[QUOTE="windypants, post: 2790195, member: 121068"] New brass: uniform primer pocket deburr flash hole find longest shoulder that will chamber easily, then full length size to that length with bushing die (-.005 bushing) check weights and neck thickness for uniformity (ADG and Lapua have been very uniform) chamfer neck deburr neck by putting steel wool in socket and spinning drill (Alex’s trick) Fired brass: lube with thumb and finger while holding neck deprime, FL size, .002 shoulder bump, -.005 bushing tumble in walnut media to degrease clean primer pocket check length; trim, chamfer, deburr as needed seat primer to uniform feel with Lee hand primer dry lube neck (Imperial dry lube with media) uniform neck with expanding mandrel dry lube again and spin tight nylon brush until warm ( Alex again) dump powder- weighed to nearest kernel Seat bullet with LE Wilson in-line seating die and arbor press Seating this way is very accurate (+/-.0005) and gives excellent feel of the neck tension. Also, runout is much improved since I started using this method and Micron sizing dies, although I haven’t actually tested that on target to know if it even matters. Alex doesn’t think so. He doesn’t use dry lube or mandrels, only the nylon brush before seating. Some of these steps are subject to change pending further testing on long range targets, but I’m very happy with the accuracy of this method right now. Its always interesting to see other people’s methods. [/QUOTE]
