[QUOTE="Hand Skills, post: 1547396, member: 103303"] For me the easiest mistake is trusting my memory. I have pretty good memory and focus, but distractions occur. Time passes... - Be meticulous. Don't assume the flash holes are clear, or all brass is the same length. Verify everything with visual inspection. If something doesn't look right or feel right, investigate why. - Work on a procedure. Doing things the same way in the same order every time will prevent charging primerless cases and seating bullets into cases without powder. Most of us keep our 'operating manuals' in our heads, but I've learned to: - Write it down If you get lost, back up and verify the previous step. Write a label for the ammo you make. Date it. There may be an art to reloading, but a scientific approach makes things CONISITENT and REPEATABLE, and that's the name of the game. [/QUOTE]
