Yeah, it's a good job, it's alot of work. At times there can be alot of pressure with it, where you have to get "the" coyote, not "a" coyote, or lion , bear,or whatever is killing livestock. Anyway, yes I do hand load. Currently I'm using win brass, cci benchrest primers, 64 grain berger's with 34.8 grains of reloader 15. I just re barreled so this is a new load for me, but the holes are touching on 3 shot groups. Thats good for now. This is actually one of the reasons I joined this sight, because I have never learned to prepare brass (other than the basics of course) and I want to learn how to do that, and whatever else I can for accuracy.
