[QUOTE="bob4, post: 1121945, member: 57171"] I was measuring a new to me quality bullet for my .270. I came up with a spread of .009 difference. Using RCBS calipers and Hornady comparator . I measured 5 separate bullets and measured each of them 5 times over. The largest spread with any 1 bullet was .005. Does this all seem reasonable/acceptable or within your allowances? I know thumb pressure has a bunch to do with the calipers. As does pressure when moving the bullet into the lands. Just curious as to what everyone else deems acceptable measurements. [/QUOTE]
