[QUOTE="Bobcape, post: 2102211, member: 13100"] In the competition world of benchrest, F-Class and PRS a large percentage of the top 100 shooters use an arbor press with strain gauge to ensure consistent seating pressure. They have found that it DOES directly correlate to consistency of bullet release and greatly reduces ES and SD. ES is the killer for F-Class and PRS and all steps that can help control it are worth it for some competitors. Looking at my dope for my atmospherics, an ES of 30 fps is a difference of 25.35" at 1,000 yards. They are looking for chamberings, loads, loading techniques and equipment that makes single digit ES possible. So, for the right circumstances and the right shooter, an arbor press with a strain gauge for seating is a good choice. Bob ETA - Not attacking your post at all. Just adding a different perspective.
