    Usually find accurate loads on the low end anyway. Good luck, be safe, have fun!

    hoser showed me the basics, and I'm very grateful for him being so patient. Key thing I learned is: mouse farts are better than elephant turds. Start on the low end and go from there.

    Not only do you find some better performing loads on the lower end, you also save powder in the long run.

    I also need to get a pocket swager, as almost all of my brass has a crimp.
