[QUOTE="coop2564, post: 1641515, member: 87214"] I agree with this said, however the avg reloader will not or is not capable of going to these lengths to achieve good repeatable neck tension, therefor for the avg guy a FCD in light crimp is the best way to reduce ES, flyers for med/Long range shooting IMO. Hunters should not jam or touch lands to produce these same results due to field issues with that type loading. Many have said test, I have and for me I get much better ES over a wider range of reloads per case using a FCD with the larger caliber rds. Many reloaders will just call I pulled that flier, when really it was not pulled just one of many neck tension issues that a FCD might of helped with. For a reloader that is only going to reload a case 4 times probably doesn't need one, but if your going to try much more than that I found it helped a lot in Keeping my ES consistent, since I do not go to all the lengths mentioned. Anything more than a Light crimp in my testing hurt accuracy in my large rifles. [/QUOTE]
