[QUOTE="QuietTexan, post: 2772110, member: 116181"] X2. It's functional, it works, and it's a lower cost option. I'm not in a huge rush to feed Lapua, Alpha or Peterson cases to my ARs or M-1, so it has a place in my reloading room. They take more work to prep and match up into batches, but you can get 20-case groups that are pretty well matched to each other capacity-wise, and those can go out to distance well enough. 3x 20ct boxes of 26 Nosler resulted in two 15-case batches that are close enough together to be good. The rest still shoot just not tight enough together to be considered matched. More than enough cases for a hunting trip, not enough for a range rifle. I have some barrels that will shoot about 1" at 100 yards feeding them basically anything, so not every round I load has to be the most best perfect ideal tuned secret sauce thing ever. Sometimes I have friends that just want to hear a 12" gong go DUNK and Hornady/Rem/Win/PPU/etc all fit the bill out to respectable distances. [/QUOTE]
