[QUOTE="rooster721, post: 904456, member: 40654"] Very best groups I've shot have been .67 @ 200.. same loads inside of 2" @ 400. But, started seeing flyers mixed in (positive it's due to neck tension) I just recently started annealing now to try eliminate (or at least minimize) that tension issue. I went with Bench source, figured it pay in brass-life if nothing else, but hoping for the best in regard to solving that problem* The necks harden badly after just one or two shots. Loads seem otherwise pretty **** good to try much farther.. can get to roughly 1200 here, just haven't chiseled the rest down to test "there" quite yet.. but that's where I'm shootin' to be before the smoke clears I have been thinking about sending Whidden some fired brass so they could do a custom set of sizer & seating dies.. BUT did have my chamber cut specifically (+/- based on machine tolerances) to brass sized out of my current dies, in attempt to mirror what I'd be able to size it to thru there.. so am unsure custom dies would really even make sense* Aside from possibly a seater. So not sure what the best idea is from here. Not sure even custom dies would be worth it considering the custom cut chamber-to-my-die scenario.. I figured that-itself should be saving a guy some trouble with sizing variation I know my loads are close. But am very curious what others do. Especially in this ELR game... I'd like some routines & methods to compare my own to to see how far off (or how close) my own prepping might be, vs the guys that already perfected what theirs do at such ranges [/QUOTE]
