New Reloader - Reloading Workflow Sanity Check

[LRRPF52]

That is some great info, thanks. I've been trying to do all that, and having your sample case gauge and COL numbers to verify against my measurements helps me load with more confidence.



Just for accuracy's sake, shouldn't this reference to 'sizing die' say 'seating die' instead?

Yes. Good catch!

I can also back up what Phil_A said with the seating stem. If you're loading any VLD profile bullets, it's a good idea to modify your stem or get a VLD stem.

You can hone the inside of the seating stem for specific VLD-shaped bullets if you're mechanically-inclined and have a good background in problem-solving.
