Curious as to what techniques guys are using. Looking to achieve better accuracy as we all are, without driving myself crazy or wasting time and effort.
How many guys out there are...
1-Cleaning primer pockets
2-uniforming primer pockets
3-reaming flash holes.
4-"double seating" meaning partially seating a bullet, lowering the ram, giving the case a partial turn and then seating the rest of the way.
5-crimping rifle cases.
6-"double crimping", same as above except during the crimp process rather than the seating process.
7-weighing individual cases and bullets and loading similar weight cases with similar weight bullets.
8-cleaning the inside of the neck with a brush.
...anything else anyone has to add.
Especially interested in anyone who has gone out of their way to experiment with differing methods and recorded results. For example, found that crimped rifle rounds perform better/worse than non-crimped rounds.
