When I measure seating depth to ogive with a Mitutoyo digital caliper and Hornady style comparator inserts my lengths vary about .004".
When measured with a Redding Instant Indicator in my T-7 they vary less than .001".
I've checked my method with the caliper and it's consistent. I sorted bullets with a Sinclair sorting stand and a good dial indicator. All were within .0005" of one another base to ogive.
Wanting to sort out why the two methods are inconsistent. Any ideas?
