    powder scale. If you do 1 handful at a time you will be able to pick out the oddball ones.

    Sounds like the ones Polygunbag had a few years ago. I just set them aside. I did look once and thought that the best way was by the base. had three distinct ones that I could tell.
    I see you running, tell me what your running from

    Nobody's coming, what ya do that was so wrong.

    What are you using the bullets for? What parameters of accuracy are you trying to get? (I hope not very good considering you knew they were not high end from the start.) Will separating them really matter? OAL is determined by the mag for an AR, so as long as they are seated to the same OAL to clear the mag and they all hit somewhere within an an inch or two of each other, does it matter?

    I have anal-retentive match grade reloads, and then I have 2-3" groups at 200 yds but reloaded really fast and easy ammo. Depends on what I'm using it for.
    Mom's comin' 'round to put it back the way it ought to be.

    Anyone that thinks war is good is ignorant. Anyone that thinks war isn't needed is stupid.
