How?

If like all good re-loaders you check functioning in your weapon and all rounds work I don't see the problem.

Again, I don't carry reloads "on the street" but that is my choice.

:)  Just havin' a little fun with Fly.   

Seriously though, experience with loading on my Lorimor Industries IDPA DeLuxe Extreme Turbo Magnum 650XL, leads me to believe that even with a bullet feeder installed at Station 3, a visual check could be performed on each case.  I have LED's installed on my 650 which greatly aid in visual checks.

Yes.  It's a special kind of sarcasm, with vests.   :)

I'm not sure you can trust a person who only makes slide lock reloads though.


But on topic here.... Like bk said it's how consistent you can get things. Brass length is what kills that. The other nice thing with a crimping die is it also works as a sizing die for the base of the case that a sizing die often does not handle.

I have that same light. It is AWESOME. One thing you may not be considering is my lack of vertical stature compared to your freakishly high cranium.  ;D

Seriously though, I'm wondering if I'm tall enough to see down into the case on station 3. I will try it at home, but I may need to dig out my old platform shoes or stand on a milk crate to see the powder level.
