[QUOTE="roop, post: 525726, member: 30085"] last winter i purchased a bushmaster .308 orc. In my reloading experimental phase i did some testing with crimps and neck tension. Now, i don't have numbers in front of me but i can tell you that no matter how much i crimped the necks, the bullets would move. dependng on bullet weight and profile, it could be in or out. bottom line here, if you want consistent velocities, you need consistent chamber pressure. if you are plinking at distances under say, 300m you probably won't notice a significant amount of vertical stringing, but for competition accuracy my recommendation would be to let the bolt down about halfway, then release it, or use that foward assist to seat the bolt. that way you can be sure of consistent performance.
