[QUOTE="Tikkamike, post: 548411, member: 22242"] I cant imagine why you cant hit the paper with the easy to chamber rounds but here are my first thoughts. obviously the ones that fit the chamber snugly shoot better because they are the same dimension as your chamber and the ejector cant push them over to one side of the chamber thus starting the bullet in the throat crooked. Second thought is why if you are doing everyhting the same are you getting varied results? IF you are indeed doing everything the same this shoudnt happen. Have you checked your loaded cartridges for runout? I have seen dies make bent shells. Has the rifle shoot at this range with no issues before? if you have eliminated all variables in your procedures. I reccomend neck sizing only. and pushing the shoulder back every 4-5 reloads and annealing. Maybe your cases have been reloaded enough that some are work hardened and are reacting to the dies differently. I anneal all of my cases every time I bump the shoulder back (which is when they get very difficult to chamber and eject.) Annealing should bring them all back to a similar hardness and you will have less variance from cartridge to cartridge. What kind of dies do you use? I have started switching to the Redding Type S Bushing dies. I find them to be worth the extra money. [/QUOTE]
