[QUOTE="Bart B, post: 511057, member: 5302"] If that happens, one should use a smaller pin. But I find it hard to believe that using a pin too large will change the hole's center unless there's a big difference in brass hardness from one side of the hole to the other. Enlarging flash holes quite a bit is a guarantee to get higher pressures and probably higher muzzle velocity spreads. Some folks will use a drill bit one thousandth larger than the biggest hole in a lot of brass so they're all the same size. This is OK to do. I've done it but didn't see any difference in accuracy.
