[QUOTE="rscott5028, post: 639360, member: 24624"] I only use benchrest/match primers. I don't know if they make much difference. But, I sleep better. You may be able to reduce your ES/SD with some extra case prep and by tweaking seating depth. Consistent neck tension is a biggie. If your neck wall thickness varies a lot, you may want to neck turn just enough to shave the high spots, and then get a bushing die or collet die that will allow you to size necks to about .002 below caliber. I'm not sure I believe the actual velocity readings. But, it really doesn't matter if your drops confirm what you need to know. Either way, your long range groups will tell you if high ES/SD is going to cause you grief due to vertical stringing. So, keep taking notes and collecting data. -- richard [/QUOTE]
