[QUOTE="dkhunt14, post: 869716, member: 14053"] Greyfox did you test at 1000 yards with your competition guns? All my testing was done with 1000 yard benchrest rifles and the vertical got better with my lubing. The other thing that really helped vertical was annealing every time. I clean my necks to the bare brass by spinning with a drill with steel wool wrapped around an old bronze brush, then i anneal. The graphite really helped with the seating. It got way easier and bullets almost always seat within a thous. measured with a Stoney Point. I can run bullets into the lands 10 to 15 and still open the bolt and not let a bullet stuck in the barrel. Now my match and hunting guns are all single shot. They do not weld after they set.
