[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1440848, member: 2736"] I'm not going to get into another heated debate over something that has been covered many times. I build custom rifles and anything pushing on the cartridge during chambering and head spacing does have an effect on the accuracy of the head space. That's why all good gunsmiths remove the ejector and the firing when head spacing. I also don't rely on my dies to set head space, I rely on a head space gauge. Proper head space is decided before the first load is developed. Then the re loader can set the ammo up to what ever space he wants to I do what works best for me and others can do what is best for them. I don't full length size, Others do. I don't seat the bullets against the lands because I don't have to because I don't load banana shaped ammo and I like the extra velocity without the extra pressure. I have never told anyone that they must do anything and that everything else is wrong. I only tell people what works for me and they can do what they want with the information. I really don't care what some "Expert" says Unless it works when I try It. I believe in testing all of these theorizes before I adopt them as my regular procedure. Each shooter has his own style of shooting and accuracy requirements and his own way of loading ammo so who am I to tell him that he is doing it all wrong. With almost 60 years of loading ammo and trying every method known to man I know what works for me in particular uses and rifles and don't get hung up on one method because every rifle and use requires many different methods to get the most out of the rifle and ammo, Not to mention the shooter. I also competed for many years and soon learned that many if not all of these experts have there secrets and will tell there competition something other than what they actually do to minimize the competition. Just thought I would explain why I don't believe anything I hear until I try/test it. And all the "Experts" in the world cant force me to do something that is detrimental to my goals of doing the best for my needs J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
