Just getting back into reloading after a couple year break due to kids being born and I want to check my methodology and confirm in not doing things too incorrectly so here it goes.
My reloading steps go in this order
-deprime
-sonic clean
-resize
- sonic clean
-trim
- chamfer
-swage primer pocket
-prime
-measure every load of powder on a beam scale
-measure a handful of bullets to find one of middle length set seating die off that and then seat all bullets checking depth occasionally
Main questions should I be trimming before sizing or after?
Do I need to measure bullet headspace if I don't how should I set my resize die every time?what is the most accurate way possible to measure powder charge?
And finally has anyone used the Frankford arsenal hand deprimer thinking of getting it
