Thoughts on Reloading and Questions

Just a few thoughts and questions - comments and corrections welcome

Weighing brass is useless unless one has measured OAL of the cartridge and case shoulder

Partial full length resizing often works better than neck sizing unless one sorts necksized brass by measuring the case shoulder

Weighing brass with consistent measurements of the same lot after resizing, trimming, ect... may be useful

Weighing bullets may be useful - but measuring the OAL bullet length and using a bullet comparator to measure length from the base to olgive would make weighing them more useful

Bullet seating depth gauges don't work any better than candling a bullet, chambering it, and then measuring it from the olgive to the casehead

A chronograph really is a necessary piece of equipment

Practical accuracy is different than theoretical accuracy

One can get obsessive compulsive about reloading
