[QUOTE="boomtube, post: 228394, member: 9215"] "They tell you its ready to load out of the box, " All cases are made in vast lines of machines, what we get is a variety of those cases, rarely off a steady stream one after the other. I often see posts of people agonising if they should FL "new" brass before loading it; what nonsense! The only way we can insure that each case is as close to the same as possible is to FL size it and then trim it to lenght, other wise it's a crap shot, no matter the brand. Anyone expecting to purchase brass from any maker and having it be as precise as parts for a watch simply doesn't understand manufactoring! Yes, it's true, on average Norma and Laupa cases ARE more consistant than more common brands but the stress should to be on "average", not each case. And that doesn't mean common brands are automatically "bad". I've had some Federal, Remington and Winchester brass that was amazingly consistant. Most of it is not, but that is the effect of "averages" roughly half is better, half is worse. We live with it or take up fishing. Pay the money you are willing to spend and test each case if you are looking for bug-hole groups. Actually, I rarely find any significant difference in accuracy between "perfect" cases and more typical cases if my loading methods are right. [/QUOTE]
