the right/left yardstick is a French Revolution-born human measure. It reflects the political spectrum, which is determined by the people’s range of beliefs. Christians, however (and everyone, in fact), should make Truth their yardstick. This inerrant guide doesn’t compromise and build consensus, either; it’s not a politician. It dictates where reality lies. And in a civilization claiming 2+2=5, it’s with the “extremist” who insists it’s 4. For God’s realism so often is man’s radicalism.

I have done that before. especially when using an off brand bullet. Like a plated bullet for instance. I just always make sure the round I'm loading seats in the barrel correctly.  One of the first things I learned when I got into hand loading is that you can't always go by OAL unless you are using the bullet listed in the manual. Every different brand of bullet or weight has a different ogive.

Every time I load a batch of ammunition. It only takes a second, and I like to ensure that everything is feeding and chambering correctly before loading a bunch of ammo.

for semi autos l buy a chamber gauge You cant really see with them if the round goes all the way in and its just easier to use. When i loading a large batch of ammo i check about every couple hundred rounds. I would hate to admit the times ive loaded 500 or more rounds to find out they wont run in one of my guns. I have a chamber guage in 223 308 300bo 300hmr and 6.5 grendel. Pistols are much easier. You can just pull the barrel out and use it.
