[QUOTE="Lenny Foffa, post: 2843250, member: 100742"] YES!!!!! The cases need several prep steps to get them ready to reload. Very few if any case mouth is perfectly round. YES!! Size them. All cases need the inside of the flash hole de burred. All necks need to be Chamfered with a VLD Chamfer, and outside the mouth de Burred. Then CLEAN the inside of the neck. All cases should be measured. Then go get 6 or 7 Zip Lock bags and a Sharpie, and separate the cases by weight. For Hunting Loads ,1 grain separation at the very Least . 1/2 Grain separation is even better. Ex: My .270 Win cases. 186.0 to 186.4 grns , then another bag 186.5 to 186.9 grns. Ect. That is adequate for whitetail deer hunting, but really not good enough for cases that will be used in Competition Guns. Just do that step only once and then keep them separate in their own plastic ammo boxes. Now you are ready to load them. I would take all steps needed to get each case at Perfect and as Uniform as possible. For me, it adds a level of confidence in my load, when the chance to shoot a buck comes. Have fun Buddy!!
