...can you see it?
The force that crammed the .454 bullet into the .44Mag case had actually bent the case (on the left):

Re: Buyer Beware
Good advice, no matter how you reload every case should get a visual for correct powder charge, I set up this simple light, it's a flexible LED light from the pound shop and a rechargeable battery. Saves holding a torch.Alpha1 wrote:I also check every case with a torch before seating the bullet it only takes a minute but it can save you a lot of grief. I don't use any bodies hand loads except my own. I'm mentoring a probationary member of our club at the moment he is a new shooter all though I have known him for several years. I'm taking him through the basics of reloading on a one to one basis. Its good because I'm having to do every thing from scratch its reminding me that I should not take anything about reloading for granted no matter how long you have been at it or how experienced you may think you are one mistake is a mistake to many.
