Drop tubing methods for the .44-77.

[Kurt]

I like using the Lyman 55 and the vibrator on it with the loading block on the floor and using the 36" drop tube like I mentioned above. With the lever up powder is in the drum is settling, dump it raise the lever move the drop tube to the next case dump it moving case to case and moving the loading block with my foot. When the cases are full seat the wads and compress, seat the bullets.
If I load 100 rounds I even tape a can of powder to the top of the 55. I really don't see any difference with accuracy doing it this way. groping 2/10 high or low does not change the velocity, other things in the loading process do the dirty work opening the groups.
