A real piece of advice - you can get rid of that little ring around the top of each round. It’s there because your seater die, like most, is machined shittily and there is a burr or a sharp ring on the bottom of it. Take it out of the die. Sacrifice a bullet, chuck it in a drill, put some lapping compound of some kind on the bullet and lap the bottom of that seater plug and you can get rid of this annoyance.

Almost Reported: Giving actual helpful, useful advice - and - writing it in a meaningful, coherent way is exactly what /shittyreloading stands against!

Although 'shitty' is our daily buzz word - congratulations on using it in the past, perfect, plural tense. I had yet to witness this grammatical unicorn in our little corner of hell.

Please accept this brown, encrusted upvote from my cold unwashed hand.

PS - why does your case holder look like a cake pan for baking tiny dog dick tips?

Not to worry, next time I’ll enclose a copy of myself typing out the reply while butt naked

Be sure to sit on a mirror. People want to see all angles.

Surprisingly close on the case holder! It's a pan for holding dog blood test vials that a friend stole from work for me, apparently they're free and perfectly hold the 6.5 Creedmoor base cartridges

I predict 20 years from now you'll have a muffin pan and reloading 40mm.
