[QUOTE="moxford, post: 2658427, member: 100620"] Cool, you got a better lot that I did, apparently. I now have a lot of boxes I now do not trust for anything "as is," and I'm going to have to do extra work (on an expensive "premium" bullet) to hit consistency on jump. That's then going to muck with the internal case volume as they will be seated shallower/deeper based on the bullet variance. In my case I'm already at slight compression (N570) so that will mean seating the short ones longer, or reducing the powder load. Either way, more workup. I have been chasing the last bit of squirelly-ness from my current loads, but this is going to be a bit more work yet. I had heard great things about Barnes so I bought a bunch ... sigh. Won't be buying any more of these, for sure, if there are other options available which reduce reloading time/fiddly-ness and provide better loaded-consistency shot to shot. Most annoying. [/QUOTE]
