[QUOTE="Benman73, post: 2721568, member: 79174"] Just more data to add… I tested several groups at 300 yards several years ago between sizing with bushing dies only vs sizing with a honed die and then using a mandrel before seating. This was with my 6.5x47. The groups sized with a mandrel were smaller on average. Not by much (maybe 20% smaller), and it could possibly be just statistical noise, but it was there on paper for me to see on those several groups that day. [/QUOTE]
