[QUOTE="Nuclear Worker, post: 1964685, member: 105422"] New to reloading! After doing all the prep work and I go to seat my bullets they keep varying. I have a Forester press and a Forester micrometer seater die. All the brass is Lapua all sized the same. Have a Lee neck die with .002 tension. Trimmed all the brass to the same length. Using Hornady ELD-X bullets., Am trying to get a OAL of 2.466 which puts me .025 off the lands. When I go to seat my bullets one will be correct at 2.466 next one will be 2.471 then maybe 2.473 then 2.468 then maybe another correct one. Is this normal or am I doing something wrong? I can’t believe I have to adjust the die every time? Any help would be appreciated thanks [/QUOTE]
