I also use a Mighty Armory decapping die to remove primers before I clean the brass. Then I anneal and size. Can't clean the primer pocket if the primer is still in.
I've used both the SAC and A419 dies to get out of round or dented necks back to roundness. My main interest in these dies is to reduce the number of steps required to prepare brass. Specifically sizing the brass and neck with a mandrel in a single stroke.

Not that I'm aware of. The Impact itself definitely doesn't get it's own wind information. That has to be manually entered or input from a Kestrel.
From the Manual:
Based on what is stated in the manual you have to press the green button in the GB app to get the weather info from the Kestrel...
Feature enhancement request:
Add option(s) for the weather button on the Impact itself so it can be programmed to grab updated weather info from a Kestrel weather station.
Currently I have to go into the GB app on the phone and hit the capture button for 3 seconds to get updated weather data...
If I recall correctly the Hornady factory 225gr ELDM cartridges fed normally. When I hand loaded to magazine length the tip of the bullet hit the bottom of the action and wouldn't feed properly. It's pretty much a moot point for me now since I'm now loading Hornady 230gr A-Tips way longer than...
I was a little surprised at the speed I ended up getting after barrel break in. I was hoping for 2850 so 2900 was nice to see. Not sure how long the barrel will last, but will replace it with a MOD BB Bartlein when it's done.
I seem to have gotten very lucky with mine. My BIL won an RPRF in a raffle and didn't want it and sent it my way unfired. After reading a bunch of reviews I wasn't expecting too much in the way of accuracy. Put a scope on it and took it to the range today with a bunch of different ammo. Another...
I've only done the laser alignment at 100 yards, but it seems like the adjustments were fairly large. Adjusting the elevation at 100 I was in between clicks to get a parallel alignment. What does it look like at 1000 yards? I'd think you'd see quite a large laser movement per click when adjusting.
