[QUOTE="Bart B, post: 613404, member: 5302"] [b]Re: Quality handloads require measuring.[/b] I disagree. I've worn out three .30-.338 barrels (two standard and one with the Keele version using .300 Win Mag cases) and accuracy with new and resized fired cases was the same. Fired cases were double sized (first time with a standard full length sizing die setting the shoulder back just enough to permit headspacing on the belt then a body die to reduce the ridge in front of the belt back to new case diameter; same thing the Willis collet die does) Accuracy for both new and resized cases with 20+ shot groups at 1000 yards was well under 7 inches. I'm not the only person to get such results; there are others. Back when the 30 caliber magnums were "the" cartridge for long range matches, the above methods resulted in virtually of the match winning and record setting scores. [/QUOTE]
