[QUOTE="dougduey, post: 1838175, member: 33159"] I went down this rabbit hole not to long ago. Hers what I learned, and it was stated earlier. Consistent neck tension and powder charge are what’s needed. I use the Sinclair Neck Turn mandrels to set a perfect neck tension just before I start drooling powder. I also get my powder charge to the kernel of powder. I haven’t bought the A&D. FX120i scale and auto trickled yet (which can accurately get a charge to the 0.001 gr weight) so I have to do it with a pair of tweezers. I hit May target charge (on my Chargemaster) then remove powder a kernel at a time until it weighs 0.01 gr less. Then I drop one kernel back in the pan to get it back to my target charge weight. It’s time consuming but it works. Got an ES of 2 and SD of 0.0 the other day in my 280 AI with this method. [/QUOTE]
