BTW, I bought a Lyman Challenger 1500XL digital scale and a digital caliper for precise measurements. I use a Lyman T55 powder measurer and I check every 5th load to confirm the correct amount of powder is being placed into the shells. I'm resizing the reused brass I have with the Lee dies and the pistol dies are carbide. The Lyman turret press is functioning correctly and I use the Lyman hand prime to prime each case. I'm using the powder and primers recommended by Tab and that he has significant experience with. We both have AR15's and the loads I'm making are well within spec, I'm not into "experimenting", I just want to make reliable rounds for target shooting. All of the used brass I have came from the same gun I'm reloading for, but I do a full length case resize for each cartridge. I'm good at following instructions and paying attention. I used to brew my own beer and I brewed 100 batches of all-grain beer in 2 years without a single contaminated batch, which is a pretty good achievement. Home brewing and reloading are very similar, except that in reloading there is even less margin for error and errors can hurt or kill someone, which is always 1st and foremost in my mind while I'm working.
