Be sure note what kind of crimp you have -- 6 or 8 point. Most hulls are 8-point these days. If you try to use the 6-point on an 8-point, it'll bugger up the hulls. Mec Manuals Also, be sure to weigh your powder charge. The bushing chart is a guide only. I've found my powder charges to vary from the chart. Good luck! Quote

Keep my RCBS 10/10 scale busy. I will give the class a report on the scientific achievement my endeavors. Yeah, right. Quote
Rooster Ron Wayne Posted September 23, 2011 Posted September 23, 2011 7/8 oz 7.5 shot and 15 gr universal powder is more than enough and still a nice light load ! GOD BLESS THE USA !!! Quote
Badger Mountain Charlie SASS #43172 Posted September 23, 2011 Author Posted September 23, 2011 I already have all of the components for reloading. All I need to do is adjust the press. I suppose that once I get it to work the way I want it, I will tinker it to death. As long as when I pull both triggers together and it goes pop, I'm good. I just like to scare Okie and Dynamite some. Quote
