[QUOTE="Tikkamike, post: 677857, member: 22242"] that question can be answered with the use of a few tools. do your current dies give you consistant OLA's? Run your loaded shells on a consentricity gauge and check for run out. if its acceptable leave everything alone, if not there are about a million things you can do. I prefer redding S type bushing dies, but they are not cheap The micrometer is not going to help make any better ammo its only a convenience feature. I have and still use the same RCBS dies you have and they are excellent. The good thing about reloading is you can always add a tool or a step to your process, just try stuff, if you like it make it part of your process, if not try something else. I would start by gathering the tools to measure all aspects of your loaded ammunition, from OAL (at the ogive) to run out and neck thickness. [/QUOTE]
