[QUOTE="Orange Dust, post: 1816255, member: 92702"] I'm going to say this and shut up about it. If you want the most consistent ammo possible for long range hunting, buy both a Sinclair and a Hornady gauge. They are both great tools and measure differently. Make every one of your cases as nearly the same as possible. Then use the gauges to find weaknesses in your reloading process. You want every round as straight and concentric as possible. Once you go down this path you can try different dies, and setups to see what works best in your equipment. You can create consistent and repeatable results. Don't be afraid to experiment, just measure the results of both the ammo and groups. I will also say if you want to shoot 400yds or less none of this matters and is a waste of time unless you are shooting very small targets. 500 is iffy. As range increases, and you go to bigger guns with larger expansion ratios, it is essential. [/QUOTE]
