[QUOTE="340PR, post: 1940051, member: 107814"] Lots of good info above. I too had the Hornady tool, and experienced several issues with it. After spending an inordinate amount of time trying to attain consistency, I realized that I needed to find the source of the runout. I bought the Sinclair tool, and started checking case necks after firing (baseline) and after sizing. After fixing all the issues with runout to that point, I went to checking the cartridge after seating. There can be "stack-up" in the process, and if you don't know where it is coming from, it is hard to correct. Today, I rarely check more than 5 cartridges/100 in a run, and find runout to be less than .002", and consistent to each other in that run. FYI: Forrester Co-ax, Whidden FL bushing and micrometer seating (with projectile specific seating cone). [/QUOTE]
