It depends upon what I'm loading for as to how lazy I get. When I'm loading 20 rounds for an elk hunt you can bet the brass gets prepped and checked carefully. When I'm loading 1500 rounds for a prairie dog hunt my standards get a lot more lax and picking media out of flash holes becomes a giant pain in the butt.
