[QUOTE="engineer40, post: 1614754, member: 90399"] I've loaded tons of 223 on my Dillon 650. With tailoring loads for the rifle my groups are half the size of decent quality factory ammo still. My ammo from my progressive press is more accurate than any of my friends that shoot factory ammo. Measured concentricity is not as good but OAL's seem mostly consistent as long as I keep the shell plate full. H322 meters VERY excellent for me. I also run the cases through in two steps like you do. I remember an old David Tubbs video where he stated the US shooting team used a progressive press for many thousands of rounds of practice and competition. I'll be honest though, that little bit of play in the toolhead and shell plate always has me thinking my ammo isnt as good as it could be... but it's still better than factory ammo and its quick!
