[QUOTE="Muddyboots, post: 1817900, member: 63925"] Many years ago (probably before most on forum were born😂), a neighbor of mine was bench guy and he passed along a tip to me on runout. He was adamant in the necessity to rotate the round during seating even to extent of marking on case body an index point so he could at least rotate the round 1/3 to 1/3 of the bullet length being seated while seating the bullet. He measured the distance of the bullet being seated into the case and divided by 3 so he had index marks on the bullet as well. I couldn't stop laughing when he told me to do that for my hunting loads to get better runout reduction. I do rotate during seating the bullet and I do believe it helps runout from numbers I have run off his gauges but NO I do not go the length he does. Let me clarify, I don't rotate, the bullet does.
