[QUOTE="goodgrouper, post: 65633, member: 2852"] I got a little antsy and decided to load up some more MOAGS today for the weekend shoot coming up. We haven't got Bills bs tool yet, so I improvised two sp comparators to check bs on the 300 grain MK's. Brian had already measured base to ogive length on the bullets and segregated them accordingly. So I measured bearing surface on all the bullets from the same group of ogive lengths. Wow, were they bad. I was getting variations of .002-.003" on bs. That would have to make at least a couple feet of impact difference at 2000 yards! After Brian spent hours uniforming meplats and measuring base to ogive lengths, I spent 6 hours today measuring bs and assembling the rest of the rounds. I got 50 loaded in a combined time of about 20 minutes per round! <font color="blue"> There has got to be a better way to do this! </font> Come on Richard, lets get those Wildcatters here pronto! I know, I know, the die maker is holding us up. <font color="red"> Why is it I always want what isn't made yet?!?! </font> [/QUOTE]
