First off , I'm new to reloading.
Here is the problem, while seating bullets in almost any caliber.
The best I can do is about .008 thou varience and total spread is usually off by about .010 thou. I have noticed this while loading .204 ruger, .270 win and 7mm rem mag. Using a variety of bullets from Nosler BT to hornady vmax's. I'm sure of my measureing procedure, this seems to be consistant. Also if I seat the bullet twice, meaning seat it shallow , measure and add what's needed I can get them all within .001 or so.
Here's the tools used
Forster Co-ax
Forster Ultra micro seat and sizing dies
Steps are
#1 - Deprime only
#2 - stainless media tumble
#3 - lube and FL size
#4 - trim long brass to book spec
#5 - stainless media tumble
#6 - prime
#7 - powder
#8 - seat bullets
I have not started to load for proper COAL according to each rifle,and don't see the point if the best I can do is .010-.012
Thanks for any help
