anything bigger than .308 should be full length resized,also those nickel cases are hard on your dies,and one more thing you should not touch your primers with your hands the oil from them ruins the
Might I recomend the Hornady Concentricty Gauge... It'll tell and CORRECT you're bullet run-out! it's awesome. also check the bullet seating depth by doing a rifling check.
A lot more than just neck sizing goes into making accurate reloads. The powder, bullet and primer combination is way more important than just neck sizing. To get the best accuracy you may have to go through lots of combinations before you find the one that is most accurate in your rifle.
well that sucksthat it didn't work, i reload pistol ammo but not rifle yet so i always enjoy watching someone do it..and gas costs about 60 more cents here..lol
@lskw1 yep i was bummed out about it. must be a old guy hype thing...? i used up my fuel rewards when i filmed this, so it lowered the price at the pump...still gas prices are outrageous!!!
Thanks for the vid... sorry if I didn't hear you say it, but the variable you are helping to control by form firing and then only neck sizing your cases is to develop consistent pressure... as you know, just one the building blocks of accurate handloads.
I got pretty much the same results doing the same thing with my 338 ultra mag. I seat my bullets for that one the same way. Have you ever pinched the hell out of your fingers on that press? I have and it aint funny lol. Great video I enjoyed it, thank you.
@stellbo yep! normally i pinch the hell out of my left thumb, because my right hand is reloading faster then my left hand! LOL. and my left hand is doing all the work!!! thanks for watching.
You have to shoot more than 3 shots but that degree of accuracy for such a large caliber is very good actually!

What did you mean when you said all you had left to do was crimp the bullets? Is there another die that you used after the seating die?
