[QUOTE="engineer40, post: 1097149, member: 90399"] While doing some research I came across some ideas that are new to me in regards to reloading for accuracy. This guy used a concentricity gauge to measure a few things. The most important being once the bullet has been seated to make sure it is completely even all around. The other a little less important he said he measures the wall thickness of his brass and he will put a small mark on the thinnest side of his brass. When shooting, he then lines that mark up with a lug on his bolt. (This is obviously not possibly if hunting and ammo is in the magazine). Another thing he was very adamant about was neck turning. It provides an even neck thickness all the way around. It also helps to distort the case neck less when reloading/resizing. Are both of these worth of the effort and will they actually produce better results? I'm not opposed to purchasing the tools and putting in the time if these are known proven accuracy tactics. Thank you! [/QUOTE]
