Yep, I do it just like that except I hand prime and charge the powder from a RCBS powder flask...oh, I also wet tumble my brass, well, most of it, some I use crushed walnut or corncob, but mostly wet.
Helpful basic bottleneck reloading instructions. I only have one thing to say. That is not a taper crimp die. That is a Lee rifle factory crimp die that presses the brass in against the bullet instead of tapering the mouth inward. It will help prolong the life of your brass.
That method of weighing the powder in the pictorials as you scroll down the screen requires a lot of extra effort taring each piece of brass before adding powder then re-weighing. A tared powder pan would be easier.
I bought an MTM digital off Amazon for not a whole lot of $$$ just to get an idea, and I'm frankly amazed at how well it measures. I doublecheck every tenth charge and haven't had a problem one with it. I don't have any fluorescent lights in the area and leave my cellphone across the room, and have the AC vents closed on that end of the basement, all things that I've read can cause problems. Very happy with it, but I know that if 100 people buy pretty much ANYTHING, you'll get a percentage of them that says it's junk...
