Reloading

I have several bushings that started life small and I have turned on the lathe to get exactly what I need. Seems like factory bushings frequently don't throw the charge they claim. I ALWAYS weigh a few charges carefully when using a new/unknown bushing.

Buy a universal charge bar and you will never look back at those bushing days again.

Good point, Daryl. If I could only find mine.
My gripe is the 3/4 oz bar only drops .70-.72 oz. I reamed one of mine.
With the limited supply of components, it’s not always possible to apply some tried and true recipes.

Quite a few people complain about the UCB but I have them on all my Mecs and I find they produce a very consistent load.

Especially in this time of limited availability of your preferred components the UCB has proven it's weight in gold for producing quality reloads.
