[QUOTE="cb186, post: 3080330, member: 120445"] The amount of force you use when pushing the bullet in with the comparitor will effect your measurements. The longer the freebore, the more this is true. Unless you have a freebore that is ~.0005" larger than what is common(usually about .0001-.0002" bigger than typical bullet diameter), you are not actually getting to the lands without pushing really hard. Different bullet brands/models will give different comparitor measurements due to bullet diameter and ogive shape. A longer taper will allow you to push farther into the freebore than a more rounded ogive. [/QUOTE]
