[QUOTE="Pdyson, post: 2746987, member: 74061"] With great groups like that I wouldn’t worry too much about it. For me the larger the case capacity the harder it is to get low SD ES numbers. My sizing process similar to yours however i like to use only Match and Magnum Match small and large rifle primers. I anneal first, pin wash, and just recently started coating the inside of my case necks with NEOLUBE#2 (graphite lube in a quick dry solvent). I was just looking over my notes from my last range trip to work up a new hog/ Coyote load for my 6.5 Grendel. Anyway I ladder tested 8208XBR, CFE223, 2520, and LeverEvolution. Of all those strings, I only had 2 strings with an SD higher than 9 and both were using the LeverEvo powder. Those SDs were 10 and 12 and the groups were horrible. I’d like to say the neolube helped but I’d have to do more testing with and without to be sure. Match primers can Definitely help. [/QUOTE]
