    I am now. Powder drop was putting out 4.2. Them I get a random 3.9 a couple more 4.2s then I get a 4.6 just started weighing every one. Made up 500 no squibs. Varied between 4.2 -4.3. Thanks for the help. Next question when breaking apart about 1000 rounds of 9mm what parts can I reuse?

    How are you breaking them apart? I’ve pulled many with my RCBS collet style bullet puller and it leaves minimal damage and I can do it without spilling any powder. You can deprime/resize carefully so you can reuse the primer as well.

    You can reuse everything.
