cleaning up greasers

[Old Jim]

I have not tried the in-line seater that you are using. I have heard they are good. I use the seater found in the Forester die-set, works fine. My run-out gage shows 0.001" run-out and almost no grease left in the die or on the outside of the case. Bullets are seated with one grease-groove exposed. I have tried the fancier "Bench-rest" seater-dies, but don't notice any improvement.

Its a good idea to wipe-off most BP loaded ammo. My rifle produces its best groups when I don't have ANY case-lube/bullet-lube in the chamber before dropping the hammer on a fresh round.

Remember, the rifle we get/buy, the sights we buy, the rifle case we buy, the tools we buy ... but the ammo we MAKE. There's a certain level of pride in producing your very best. That's the satisfaction in it.
