[QUOTE="BobbyL, post: 412734, member: 14081"] I have never found those tools to be accurate enough for what i do but they do help alot. I always size a fired un primed case and load a bullet long then chamber it. Then use steel wool to scuff up the bullet so i can see what kind of marks it makes after chambering it and continue to seat it deeper untill the marks almost go away. One thing that helps alot for me is taking the ejector and firing pin out so i can get a good feel for it. Then i label that round and keep it for future reference to see how much the throat has moved. Its also a habit of mine to check to see how well centered the bullet is in the chamber, or how well the chamber is centered.... [/QUOTE]
