[QUOTE="deerassassin22, post: 1041748, member: 86587"] I recently started using one of these so here is my .02... I use the Bullet comparator to measure mine to the OGIVE of the bullet not to the tip of the bullet. You may get some slight changes due to the bullets you using with my 208grn AMAX i do get some difference in each bullet. Also I notice that you have to spin the case in the comparator to get it to snug up and get a consistent reading. Also with measuring Soft Points the tips are all going to be different causing readings to shift. If you are using bullets from the same box try another box or another bullet type to see if the readings even out. I have gotten bad bullets from Hornady a few times esp 5.56mm with the canlaure.
