IHMSA15151 Posted March 18, 2020 Share Posted March 18, 2020 Just a word of caution. Always check what weight your press is throwing with a scale after switching to a new bushing. The bushing charts are a good reference but can throw a slightly different amount of powder. It's usually not enough to make things dangerous but it can effect your load performance.
