[QUOTE="orangediablo, post: 1343321, member: 96562"] I'm somewhat new to reloading in terms that I stick to the "basics"...Remove primers, clean, inspect, FL size, prime, powder, bullet, light crimp. I'm happy with my results at 200, I can usually cover 3-4 shots with a quarter, but at 300, things start opening up more than I like, almost to the point where a .4-.5 MOA turns into a 1 MOA (some vertically, some horizontally). Without a doubt, I know some more reloading advice and adjusting/adding a process or two will tighten these up. I picked up a magnetospeed to check velocities and spreads, so that should help. I know vertical spread culprits can be charge, neck tension, crimp (maybe)...I guess what is the next easiest step to add to alleviate vertical spread? Check charge weight with second scale? Anneal? Just neck size instead of FL? If you need any more info, ask away. [/QUOTE]
