[QUOTE="Ultramag45, post: 782877, member: 12416"] I was reloading some 250 gr .338 Berger Elite hunters today for my 338 RUM.. I usually shoot the 250 Accubonds...adjusted my comp seater die to OAL of 3.765.. (that is where the accubonds like it) loaded the first 3.. they were all perfect.. went up in powder charge .5 grain and loaded 3 more... Just because, i checked the OAL.. wow... way different...Kinda thought I messed up somewhere..pulled the bullets and went back to original powder charge... checked all cases.. all the same ...length...thought my die was goofy..went and measured the bullets and couldnt believe the differences..the first 3 I loaded were 1.62-1.624 average..the next 3 were 1.63- 1.642...so decided to measure 25 of them out of a new box of 100... I got 1.615- to 1.643 .. all over the place... went and checked 20 Accubonds and they were all 1.571 to 1.573.. havent shot them for accuracy.. wondering WHY the inconsistency!!!!ANy body else have this problem...gun) [/QUOTE]
