Re: Subjective, I know

Just weigh it ...twice... then adjust your metering device to reflect the amount if its different.
Pretty much standard, for most of us who reload, to weigh every ten throws to be certain the charge is correct.

Back to my thread... BE-86 anyone?

Re: Subjective, I know

There's been a bit of "buzz" around Alliant's BE-86. They're not saying it means they're phasing out Bullseye but one could speculate since Bullseye is very scarce. Tried the new one yet?
And there's an interesting thing happening without any fanfare. Alliant's recipes for reloading are now calling for Federal 100 primers, but the main page still lists CCI 500's. Is there a reversal happening from some of the powder manufacturers who were saying "No Winchester, or no Federal primers".

Subjective, I know

But, your opinions are appreciated.
Bullseye is hard to find these days. What are you using as a substitute? I'm reloading 9mm 147 gr Hornaday hollow points and just picked up a few 124 gr hollow points. Using CCI 500 primers.
