There ya go. Like I said above, I don't think clean dry fingers are a problem.
There's almost no part of reloading that can't be done in several different ways - all with varying degrees of success AND what I call "fussy factor."
One of these days, I'm gonna sit down and write "Reloading for Dummies." One of the major things I want to explain is that "fussy factor" and how it applies to reloading. The range of F2 is astounding.
If there were a scale, it'd start at zero. That's the guy making replacement ammo around the campfire with a Lyman Tong tool or Lee kit. Squeeze the case mouth a bit smaller, push in a primer, scoop some powder, seat a bullet. That ammo works fine.
At the other end, there's a target competitor crafting match ammo. He sorts and weighs his cases, his primers, his bullets. He almost re-manufactures each case from mouth to primer pocket, he spins and sorts his bullets, he measures everything that can be measured. He culls more of his components than he uses. And on and on. His ammo works, too.
The difference? F2
