Two comments on Dave's video on case prep. After trimming his case, he did not champher the case mouth. Failure to do so could cause the bullet to crimp the case when loading (inside champher) or cause feeding problems (outside chamnoher). The second point and this is one that can occur frequently, is in handling the primer by hand. We all have oils in our skin and sometimes presperation on our fingers. These can contaminate the priming compound and causea dud round. If using a single step primer, use twesers to handle the primers.
