So once brass is sorted:

1) deprime- either with a universal depriming die or a depriming tool
2) wet tumble and dry
3) inspect- cracks, bulges, etc and discard bad cases
4) resize- I always do 5-10 more so that some can be weeded later
5) flare
6) prime

Now comes the question:

Powder in all
Bullets in all
Or
Powder & bullet one at a time then next case powder & bullet

What to you do?

Aside from the usual bs regarding food, drink, politics, hemorrhoids, etc, it appears that despite the time, expense, and effort, this new forum as many firearms sites are, fast running out of gun topics and and meaningful discussion. Other than the usual my gun is bigger than your gun, it appears many gun topics for the average stiff have been cussed and discussed. Perhaps there's a good crew-served weapons forum to check out.  Rolleyes
