As your skill level improves, you will probably find you want more consistent shells than you are loading with this approach.

There are loads that work well with all the tapered interior Winchester and Remington hulls.

There are loads that work well with the straight wall hulls.

But there are no good loads that will result in consistent speeds when loaded willy nilly in both type hulls.
