[QUOTE="blacktail 8541, post: 2858905, member: 83713"] I work up to max charge weight in new brass, then back off 1 grain and look for best seating depth. With once fired brass I then set my FL die up to size to that datum on the shoulder. I don't want to set the shoulder back. Next I try different primers to find which gives me the best results with that powder, and finally I then go back and fine tune the powder charge. Once fired or more brass usually requires no changes to the load. I keep notes on what primers work best with what powders the best , so I start there. One thing I will add is that I provide new brass in the brand that I prefer when the rifle is being chambered. [/QUOTE]
