Default RE: tips to reloading?

Ok, now for a worthwhile tip. Gosh guys. Safety glass's?

Anyway, use a fabric softener sheet to clean out the dust and stuff i your funnel and powder thrower and wieght pan. Keeps those little flake powders from sticking up the mess.

Second. When seating a bullet, turn the case 3 or 4 more times when seating to get alignment right

Here's another. Square you dies before tightening down the setup. The threads on dies are so course, you can get bad alignment. To do this, use a very straight washer and raise the shell holder to the top against the die. use only the wieght of the handle and carefull tighten down the lock ring.

To make straight ammo, raise the expander ball as high as it will go. Deprime with a universal deprimer. That way, when pulling the brass out of a sizing die, it will immediately be caught on the ball and make "straighter" ammo.

The powder that produces the best velocity usually doesnt produce best accuracy. If a slow powder doesn't work, try a little faster one. It pays off sometimes.

Hottest primer isn't always the best route.

Thats all I can think of right now.
