[QUOTE="Pdyson, post: 1913099, member: 74061"] Trying to make perfect ammo can drive you crazy. Some have touched on it but your press can induce runout no matter how much you spend on precision dies. If the ram, or even the shell holder isn’t perfectly square and centered on the die it will induce runout. I’m using my rockchucker press I bought new in 1981. All that wear and abrasive powder residue have made the ram extremely sloppy. I believe that play makes better ammo. The coax presses have floating shell holders. slop helps the brass center itself in the die. the Lee collet dies have some built in slop and are also self centering. [/QUOTE]
