[QUOTE="pricedo, post: 421052, member: 25770"] Yah..........my [B]useless tool shelf[/B] has a few dust covered occupants from over the years that I "bit the gimmick hook" on. I can truly say that they all hit the intended target once.........[B]MY WALLET[/B].:rolleyes: I straightened a few cartridges out with the Hornady tool.........most of my ammo didn't need it but there were 3 or 4 approaching .005" of runout that I nudged back to under the .002" red-line of acceptability........possibly future "fliers" that I find so frustrating & irritating when they spoil a good group. It's not a forceful bend perse......rather a gentle nudging perpendicular to the cartridge's longitudinal axis. But without range results on the target paper it's all pure speculation at this point & no "expert/guru" is going to tell me he can prove/disprove a theory at first glance without first trying it at the range & seeing over time if the tool results in tighter groups/fewer annoying fliers. Anxiously awaiting some [B]from-the-range[/B] results. [/QUOTE]
