[QUOTE="Pdyson, post: 2316379, member: 74061"] I trim to the trim-to-length shown in my reloading manual and I trim every time. It my brass prep ritual. I usually use my FA deprime tool to deprime brass while my barrel cools between strings and I dump it in one of those giant cheese ball jars when I get home. On brass day I first anneal all the brass. Then a quick 10-15 min clean in the wet tumble or ultra sonic. Then I resize, mandrel expand, trim, chamfer, debur. Then a quick 2nd wash to remove the die wax and graphite dry neck lube. 20 mins in the jerky dehydrator. Prime and neck brush. Ready to load. I try to be consistent and eliminate variations that could affect group size. So I do the exact same process every time…regardless of the rifle cartridges. My pistol ammo isn’t treated so well mainly because I can’t shoot it accurately enough to see a difference. [/QUOTE]
