Re: Reloading
Wow thats a lot of questions. So let me try my best to answer these. Everyone has a Their own methods. I personally dont use a subsonic cleaner just because I don't have one. I take dirty range brass and separate then by size. I take the brass and begin to by tumbling them for a couple of hours in a media tumbler. Then I spray the lubricant on the brass and then deprime them. Then after depriming the I clean our and swagger the primer pocket ans clean that. From there I check the length of each piece of brass. Then I reinsert the proper primer... from there I go into and either stretch the brass or do what ever needs to be done... I don't know much about annealing so I can't comment on that... ( next one coming up soon)

As to my suggestions above, take each one, turn it into a topic. Ponder over your knowledge and put it in writing.
