[QUOTE="ShortMag3, post: 1352770, member: 17403"] I have a friend who shoots factory ammo out of his 300 Rum. He's shooting the 185gr Vld HSM ammo. He lives a few states away so all conversation. He said he shoots about 1" groups at 100yds. I told him by adjusting the seating depths we could probably tighten up the groups. I purchased a box, opened up the 1st pack and measured the base to ogive for a reference dimension. I had .008 variation in 5 pcs.Definitely not great but ok I guess. So I proceeded to tap the bullets out a little with the kinetic hammer and was suprised at the minimal neck tension. One tap and out had .1 + movement and a crimped jacket on 15 out of 20. *** Is this standard for their quality. [/QUOTE]
