[QUOTE="boomtube, post: 268283, member: 9215"] I haven't used the Bersin tool, haven't even seen one, sure haven't seen the Hornady so I'm no expert on the subject. But, that said, I question the value of such a device. Run-out comes from the case neck so correcting it has to bend the neck. Support for the bender-pusher looks to come from the body of the bullet and the base of the neck, or body of the cartridge, with the pusher working against the two supports. That would seem to put a LOT of bending (i.e. deforming) force on the bullets. Thus it seems the potential for slight bullet damage would be significant even if it were invisible to the naked eye. lightbulb ??? My solution? I want a bunch of you guys to buy either one of those expensive tools and use it for a large number of rounds. Then come back and tell us - me - if the thing works good enough to overcome the potential harm it could do. :D [/QUOTE]
