    First reloads

    Loaded up some 243 with @40mm

    A few hiccups (for the record all on me)

    But eventually we were off!

    Most of the earlier groups were around 1 inch. Near the book max I shot this.

    But we encountered some unusual primers

    The first photos are the book starting charge weight.

    Second ones are the load we ended up with. Half a grain below book max.

    Also made a classic mistake.
