Luvtoreload!

Da
, I hope you're still able to read this

I eyeball everything every step of the way. Primer seating, powder (I also weigh about ever 20 rounds), and OAL (I measure about every 20 rounds).

I trim and resize my unfired brass and collet neck size my fire sized brass. Never have done more than that and never had a FTF or FTE. I'm shooting a somewhat modified post ban (old stock) Bushmaster A4 carbine.

Do I really need a go/nogo gauge?

Ok. Not too much of an investment, and safer to boot.

Glad you made it through the storm in one piece!

Take a deep breath, reliable internet access will be back soon enough
