[QUOTE="Trnelson, post: 1156660, member: 42308"] Not specific to your setup or rig, but just my findings working with the 208 AMAX for one of my rifles. Measure cartridge base to ogive of all the rounds you load to test. I noticed that I had "unexplained" flyers in groups and re-tested I eventually figured out that after seating and measuring each load for testing, one was .0055" shorter than the other four seated with the same seating die at the same time as the others with no changes or adjustments and I marked the case and when I shot the group at 200 wouldn't you know that bullet went 1-3/8" low outside of the neat 1-1/2" group of four. After repeating this test twice more and validating the result I went away from the 208 AMAX. YMMV. [/QUOTE]
