    4.7g-4.9g of Titegroup under a 125 JFN. I shot some cream puffs and didn't like them. I have to build some 158s and try those next.

    Finished loading that pound of powder, almost exactly 25% of the rounds had charges that varied by up to 1.5gr off from the norm. Not sure if I got a faulty unit or what, but its definitely going back.

    Good Lawd please tell me you're shooting this at 1,200+. I can't imagine using 300 RUM as a target load unless you're pushing beyond the limits of more pleasant 30 calibers...

    Thanks for the tips KS63 and encorehunter! I've looked into other brands and was leaning towards the Hornady LNL one, can be had for around $70, but then I hear that RCBS is better quality and its at $80-100. It would just be nice to not have to weigh 223 plinkers and know they are closer the 0.1gr difference than the 2+ gr difference I was getting with the Lee (even though those charges were still within specs, theres nothing that says it couldn't suddenly spit out one with 15gr and cause a squib or something).

    Got a Lee classic cast press to dedicate to decapping. Mounted it up on a spare workmate I had around. I won't load any faster but it'll be cleaner!

    Kept working on my bathroom. eyed my components wistfully. I'm happy that winter is coming. Maybe I'll find some time to do some loading and shooting.
