Are you lubing the cases? What is your procedure for setting up the die?

Also, for any given load I would check that it prints the same size and relative position with and without the magnetospeed chrony attached.

41.3 looks pretty good, seems to be in the middle of the 'high' righters. I'd start around there.

But was that the 100yd group that also shot the best relatively?

Can anyone confirm that when testing for the best seating depth as per detail here, that the best shooting group (hence specific seating depth) at 100m will be the most accurate long range seating depth?

Hey mate, Having had a single stage Lock and Load equivalent in the Lee Breechlock system, I can say that I'm not happy with the accuracy of the quick change bushings. You can get about 0.005"+ difference with Cartridge Base to Ogive (CBTO) measurements with seating as there is so much slop...

The definition on insanity is doing the same thing twice and expecting a different result.... jk :) I'd stop using the factory loads to foul the barrel. I have read and heard numerous reports of people running cheap ammo and fouling the bore with crappy jacketing compared to the premium...
