[QUOTE="TexasPhotog, post: 2884213, member: 127402"] If you're happy using factory, then great. But reloading has some real advantages. I find I can reload straighter ammo than what is sold in the stores and I can control the COAL. Concentricity definitly helps accuracy and sometimes seating a bullet longer or shorter improves accuracy quite a bit too. Also you can use bullets that are hard to find - or completely unavailable - in factory ammo in the cartridge you want to use. For example, a guy with a fast twist 243 can load 105's and longer with handloads, or 162's in a 7-08 and those do improve wind holds. [/QUOTE]
