    Magnetite liked post by Cigar On thread : Load checking changing primer lots.
    Yes, though I don't bother. But if the lots are 28 years apart (e.g. 1993 and 2021) I definitely would! The company have probably changed their production process, recipe or source of materials in...

    Magnetite liked post by grandpamac On thread : Playing with some Redding Competition Shell Holders
    Greetings Magnetite, Definitely an option which I use for my 6.5 x 55. For multiple rifles like my .308's it becomes tiresome. Even 1/16th of a turn of the die is over 0.1mm or .004 inches. I guess...
