Thread: Annealing after sizing?

7. Wash/clean and air dry.
8. Trim all cases & de-bur.
9. Prime.
10 Charge. I then check them all using a torch.
11. Seat projectile and check length

Same sequence I use and probably many others except I've long since given the washing the flick. Just not necessary. Will depnd upon the lube used of course.

Also the way my set up works is I weigh a charge, tip into case, seat projectile. Whilst I'm seating the projectile my next charge is being dispensed.
The reason I went to weigh one load one is I used to charge all cases then seat. I had a couple of woops when the tray of 20 cases was almost all charged and I bumped the next charge passing over the tray depositing powder in several cases. Couldn't be sure which ones had powder added so redid the whole lot.
Charge one load one for me is no slower than charging a whole tray then seating.
