[QUOTE="Mike Matteson, post: 2572066, member: 101791"] With long term storage of hand loads, I don't have any presently. Because I have just started using bushing dies. I have ammo that has been stored for years. Loaded use RCBS either neck sizing dies. or FL dies. I hadn't until last year used a concentric tool to check my reloads. To my surprise almost all the reload I check were almost 0 runout. In those pass years I did cut neck for variance in neck thickness, and started over 20yr ago, and upgraded my equipment this pass year to 21st Cty neck cutting system. To the point of have additional cutting set ups. so I don't have to change my final cut for thickness for that caliber. I size down to what is needed to achieve 2ths tension in my necks. In reading now, what you are saying that the spring back continue even after that. Interesting! I guess one way to test that is to set up and do my case work and set the ID for that cartridge including the tension. Set the case aside and check back in a couple of months,(unloaded) and more to see what's going on. I have in the pass placed your input into my notes that are about 35 pages long now. I see I got some additional note to be place now. I also note where the input come from. I work towards reducing inconsistences in my reloads. I had bow hunted for about 15 year, and didn't do much rifle hunting until just as of late. The amount of info out there is almost to much. :) In rereading you blog, and getting it typed, I kind of missed the boat by some. Fools rush in, where wise men do go. I am in the first part.
