[QUOTE="Mikecr, post: 742860, member: 1521"] The function of the indicated K&M is to set every primer at a desired crush, and there is nothing else that does this. It is first zero'd simultaneously to THE primer and THE pocket it's going into. These are variances with all primers, rims, and uncut pockets. Then you seat with that primer & case normally, except to indicated crush(rec. 2thou). Repeat for each primer/case. This is a good path to consistent primer ignition. But another big part is consistent & correct STRIKING itself. So it's very important to ensure pockets cut to a standard depth, so that primers at a given crush have a chance of being struck the same. With this and for this, you move onto measuring and testing/setting action timing, or you can trial & error with various brand/type primers until grouping improves. Over the decades many BR competitors have discovered that there is more to primer ignition than merely setting them off (anyone can do that). [/QUOTE]
