Why not take a fired hull, weigh and insert the powder into the hull, hand insert a wad and push it down until it touches the powder, weigh your shot and pour into the shell, then put this shell in the crimping station of your reloader. Finish the shell in the reloader then see how your crimp looks. Is your crimp nice?

I will give that a shot (no pun intended) tomorrow.
