[QUOTE="QuietTexan, post: 3058662, member: 116181"] On the back end I don't bother with any of that. Pin gauge and done. Will measure to the closest 0.0005" if not closest 0.0001" depending on which pin tolerance you buy. There are tolerances with everything you mentioned - neck thickness, bullet diameter, even the mandrel unless you verify it with a mic (but that's a one and done). That's not even getting into run out and lack of concentricity. If the case before loading passes the correct pin gauge and doesn't pass the next one up, doesn't matter, all those tolerances get averaged out IMO. [/QUOTE]
