[QUOTE="Old Rooster, post: 2217531, member: 108576"] I made a trip to the range to shake the dust off a few rifles and check again for rifles shot not using fcd and those that do. Results: One 30-06 shot a group anyone could be proud of w/o fcd and the other shot a 1/2 inch group.Previous targets show a benefit of fcd. 45-70 all targets show a benefit of fcd and zero bullet set back. 300 Weatherby mag with .003 neck tension shot a reasonable group but I can do better and I will use fcd and compare targets but one problem was the sharpie ring on a round in the magazine was gone so bullet set-back happened,not alot but some. That was with R P Brass.I have new Norma/Weatherby brass I will test next trip out.One without fcd just .003 neck tension to see if neck tension by itself can stop bullet set-back. I'll test a few other rifles soon I had a fcd before I joined this forum but Butterbean and a few others schooled me on proper use of fcd and I thank all you guys. Old Rooster [/QUOTE]
