[QUOTE="eaglesnester, post: 458317, member: 9431"] There is an excellent article on the Redding Reloading equipment web site on this very subject. Their consensus is that run out is most of the time caused by brass being thicker on one side all the way from the head to the neck. The only thing you can do with this brass is to throw it away if the run out is more than say.005. Neck turning is a useless procedure, very seldom is it the die or any other piece of equipment you are using. I stopped pulling my hair out about run out after reading the info on the Redding website. Now I just sort my brass according to run out. The very good stuff (.003 or less) I use for hunting. Sometimes I only find 10 good pieces in a 50 round packet.There are some that say partially seating the bullet then turn it 180 degrees in the seater and finish seating will sometimes correct run out. I have never ever found that to work for me. I have been reloading for 5 years and I reload for the following calibers. 22/250, 30/06 Springfield, 30/30 Winchester, 300 Weatherby, 338.378 Weatherby. 375 H&H, 308 Norma, and 300WSM, 50cal flintlock and 50cal Hawken.
