[QUOTE="Greyfox, post: 712729, member: 10291"] I don't know for sure but I think runout plays a greater role when you load close to the lands. I can remember when I was doing a lot of shooting with my 308 using Federsl GM Match brass which I had a large supply. Run outs were all over the place, as high as .010", no matter what I did to it. I thought it was very poor brass, but it gave excellent results. With my MilSpec seating depth of +.150" it made no difference at all with 168/175 SMK's. That rifle shot .25-.4 MOA out at 600 yards very consistently. I did nothing to the brass except make sure the length was OK. The results were identical to those achieved with Lapua brass with run outs of .002" or less, and meticulously prepared. It's a very different story with my 6.5x284, 338, and 260 using VLD's closer to the lands. Brass prep makes a difference with group size and ES. [/QUOTE]
