[QUOTE="rscott5028, post: 487017, member: 24624"] I love gadgets. So, I couldn't help myself and bought the Hornady gauge that let's you correct runout. After giving it the full benefit of the doubt, I've concluded it's a piece of junk. It's poorly made with lots of slop. It will sometimes detect TIR and many times it won't even detect .001" runout while my Neco clearly indicates .005". You can sort of straighten cartridges with it by switching back and forth to the Neco for the actual measurement. But, after messing with a number of batches, it looks to me like those which are made straight shoot well and those that you straighten are are no better than the ones with a lot of runout and may even be worse. Since I switched from a Lyman T-Mag to the Forster Bonanza Co-ax press I see a lot less runout and sleep much better. -- richard [/QUOTE]
