[QUOTE="kraky, post: 185784, member: 180"] Ya.....I re-read my post after making it and was surprised I made it this long without a small fire. Here's what I was trying to say. If you read the gun rags when they are testing a new gun it seems that one or two handloads always goes well under an inch. It also seems that one or two factory loads also go well under an inch. (Of course there's plenty of both that don't). My post meant to reflect that there's no reason......if you know your guns favorite bullet, powder, seating depth....that you should be able to match or beat any of the BEST factory loads out there without extra case prep on virgin brass. Lets not forget that alot of this rests on the quality of the gun. Some guns can shoot alot of loads to 1/2" and under. Alot of factory guns may have a hard time cracking 1" consistantly with either reloads or factory. Bottom line is with the right gun and load you can shoot some very good groups with min prep on virgin cases. [/QUOTE]
