    Building the Position 2, very nice background commentary:

    All while belly is doing an instructional video to teach people (us) who have no idea what we're doing

    The Lyman is faster once it warms up. It takes 30 minutes to warm up. It already has a 'straw mod' as part of its design.

    The RCBS is more deliberate, but it takes only 10 seconds to warm up. It requires a McDonald's straw to be inserted in the tube to eliminate clumping and dumping of a large pile of powder when it starts the slow trickle to get 0.1gr more.

    both are equally accurate at dropping powder into a tray.

    Ahahaha, I was trying to understand what he was talking about with a 30 caliber something.

    Admit it, it was you. You needed more light for your plethora of cameras
