[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1308690, member: 2736"] You are not looking for a loss or gain in case capacity, Only a very consistent volume inside the cases to be tested. The gain in case capacity may give you more velocity, But if the case volume is not consistent, the higher velocity may not be consistent round to round increasing the SDs and ESs. What I have found by sorting brass and bullets as described, Is that it is easer to work up accurate loads because of the consistency and when you get very low SDs you probably will have a very good load if everything else is consistent. If I have good SDs, and poor groups I change bullets or try different seating depths because I know that I have a good combination of powder, primer, case volume, neck tension and concentricity. Note: (sometimes it is just the shooter having a bad day) Its like practice, The best load in the world, cant make up for lack of practice. so we try to eliminate every problem we can and develop consistency in our loading to help when we are having a bad day.
