    When do you stop chasing accuracy?

    That's pretty much where I stop load development and will practice shooting at the distances I plan on harvesting from.

    Light primer strikes

    You sure you have the primers completely seated? My shooting partner had this issue when starting out, as near as we could figure the "light strike" finished seating the primer and the subsequent strike would actually crush the anvil. Even with "good brass" I still uniform and square up the...
