Thanks. That makes more sense - a little weight to assist the vibration from the tumbler in compacting the powder. I'll give that a try to speed up loading with compressed loads. I hate the "crunching" feel and sound of seating bullets with a compressed load. But even worse is the bullet being slowly pushed back out if I am running light next tension. Then I get variable jump distance to the lands and scratching my head on "stray" shots. The Grendel seems to be a little more forgiving in this area than my Savage 6.5 Creedmoor.
