[QUOTE="QuietTexan, post: 2425578, member: 116181"] What caliber? I've started really buying into initially running smaller calibers tighter and larger ones looser. After going over a lot of info from Mike and Mark and other smart guys something I messed with is shortening the length of neck sized on my .338 while using the same sizing mandrel to open back up has shifted the groups some. Not turning the necks and using a full caliber mandrel (LE Wilson "new", I think it's actually .338 - to try to target .0015 spring back on new brass), so pretty loose. Hornady factory loaded brass, not very well matched, could be case volume causing differences also. [/QUOTE]
