Time between loading and shooting

[parkerg31]

How long is too long from when you guys load your rounds and then shoot them. I have a match in a few weeks but have time to load this weekend and was wondering if it would affect my loads. Ive always just loaded them the night or two before.

"Cold welding" is a possibility. Happens sometimes - randomly. Usually with very clean brass contacting the copper bullet surface.

What you can do is load like you normally would, but seat them long. The day before your match, seat them to your desired OAL. That will free any bonding to the case neck.
