Re: Which seater die seats bullets the straightest?
I had so much to say on this topic, but everyone already said it

I am stuck with the role of being a spoiler.
If I take an ordinary RBCS seater die and seat the bullet in 3 stages while rotating the case 120 degrees and then again, I will get ammo that is not as straight as the sliding sleeve 7/8-14 seaters or the Wilson, but I will get ammo that is so straight that although I can measure the difference in run out with a concentricity gauge, I can't measure the difference at the range in group size.
I still payed extra for the Sliding seater dies, per this expired patent
http://www.freepatentsonline.com/3440923.pdf I have paid extra for 223, 6mmBR, 243, 257RAI, 260, 270, 7mmRM, 308, 300WM, 7.62x54R, 8x57, and others.
Why pay extra?
Vanity, obsession, fear, etc.
