[QUOTE="misterc01, post: 2048485, member: 109160"] So far in my experience with the Precision Mic, it does take a soft touch when using. You can over tighten it and get a "false" reading if you crank it just a bit hard. I have used it to check new factory ammo. new brass, fired brass and re-sized brass. I worked with it on each type of brass and practiced until I got consistent readings, which is how I found the "touch" for using it. It also helps to use a headspace comparator as a cross check. I have had ocassionally had brass that was only one or two thousandths longer or shorter after firing, with the majoiry being longer. Next mystery - why do some cases not fit in a case gauge when they measure the same as those that to do? [/QUOTE]
