[QUOTE="Shootin4fun, post: 1734806, member: 28741"] You will find the Magneto to be much more consistent than your readings from the ProChrono. I used the latter for about 8 years and the MS for about 2 now. I never question what I'm getting from the MS. Annealing- Huge improvement if you load your cases more than twice. I only started that a year ago and the A/B test results were stunning. Got an Aneeleez. Even old brass shot 5 times seems to come back to life. I was clued into it by a guy who owns a 1 mile range and gives training classes when he saw my single fliers in 5 shot 2 hole groups and my velocity readings. "That's not your load, that's not you, that's neck tension" he said. I anneal every other loading now. Sometimes between every load depending on what I'm doing. BTW, Templaque will save you a lot of guesswork and wasted brass. Works every time, quick and easy. Never neck turned. All off the shelf hunting rifles with sporter barrels. All are capable of .25 MOA groups, so I am not as consistent as my loads. Chargemaster - No need to get more accurate if you're on a good OCW node. Been using it for 2 years and now weighing is a dream. Pretty much have gone back to FL sizing after dabbling with neck sizing for a few years. Runout is .001 - .002. Everything is locked down that way. Makes sense that it would be more consistent over generations of loads and the body and shoulder really aren't getting overworked anyway. I reload cases up to 10 times (depending on brass brand and load power) before discarding when primers get too easy to seat. [/QUOTE]
