I'm still using primer signs compared with factory loads using the same primer.

Wish I still had those .40 S&W 180-gr loads with WW-231 that got the "smiley face" crease when fired from a Glock

. A few cases remain undisposed, but they've all been decapped...

I'll still back off *if* the velocity is higher than the load data I should be getting from that barrel length.
