[QUOTE="Varmint Hunter, post: 3102949, member: 313"] It's amazing how many different methods still result in good accuracy providing that things are done consistently. I try to not overthink things while still getting to the accuracy that satisfies me. Typically, I like my hunting rifles to print into 2", or less, at the 400 yd line. I start with high quality brass (Lapua, ADG, Peterson, Alpha) and use it in "no neck turn" chambers. I use Redding Type S Match bushing dies almost exclusively. In the last 6 months I been experimenting with using mandrels. I have noticed an improvement in the consistency of seating pressure on some cases, but I have not noticed an improvement in group size. Maybe with more time on the bench that will change. [/QUOTE]
