    Newbie reloader, questions on weight of powder

    Hey,

    So made my first batch of rounds today, awesome feeling to get them on the range (which is outside my reloading shed)
    Didn't group bad but definitely get better grouping out of my factory loads.. for now I hope.

    I had a few questions, while I was putting powder in my brass (Ari2217) I was doing a starting load of 67.5 but I found with my cheap Hornady digital scales I was getting a varied reading eg 67.4,67.5,67.8 etc... how important is it to get the exact same amount of powder?

    Also what is everyone's technique of case prep?

    Cheers team
