When I despair, I remember that all through history the ways of truth and love have always won. There have been tyrants, and murderers, and for a time they can seem invincible, but in the end they always fall. Think of it--always.
How would you increase precision? you set your dies up with a caliper to what you want correct? the only way I can see to increase precision is to have your dies set up to sit on the ogive of that particular bullet?
What I read was the ability to feel differences in neck tension, that kind of 'feel'. Not something I'm worried about.

I'm sort'a the opposite of a benchrest shooter. My philosophy runs along the lines of, "Any bullet that goes downrange instead of somewhere else is an accurate bullet," though if hard pressed on the subject I will grudgingly admit that those bullets that actually hit a target are better than those that don't. Perzakly where on the target a bullet hits is pretty much a matter of unconcern to me.
But then... I learned to shoot with a slingshot I carved out of a board, with "bands" cut from an inner tube and a pouch cut out of the tongue from an old leather shoe, and I fed it anything that would fit... all too often to my present shame, screws and nuts from my dad's machine shop. A machine screw with a couple of nuts threaded onto it will do a job on a bird.
Eenyhoo... That's a neck-size-only setup and I'm sure my rifle brass would get some longevity from using it... except that I seldom fire the same rifle twice in a row, and neck-sizing only ain't a good way to go for that.

I hit the mother load when I was a kid. Found a box in the barn with thousands of 3/8 nuts. Yep I had a fine time killing shit, until the tail light of a 76 Chevy got in between me an a squirrel. I had no idea a man could throw a homemade slingshot 300+ yards while cussing a youngster....
Here's a couple of other things that will help reduce your group size.ImageUploadedByTapatalk1447953401.592430.jpgImageUploadedByTapatalk1447953454.039349.jpg

FLT, is that the Tuskegee Golden Tiger mascot?
Back to subject: One of the things that help me with grouping back when I was doing a lot of reloading, was to shoot the same brass in the same gun (bolt guns) and don't do full length sizing, just neck sizing.

We have something in common. A little pussy helps me as well....
C/H , no he's only 8 months old . He weighs 27 pounds already! My wife called me from Atlanta and said she was bringing a new pussy home. I said great how long before you'll be home. Imagine my surprise , not at all what I had in mind.
