just finished loading a batch of 357 magnum rounds with 140 grain xtp bullets. just for fun, i decided to check bullet runout on my concentricity gauge.
out of a sample of ten:
three had .003"
one had .002"
one had .001" and
five had .000" runout.
i am not going to worry about runout with xtp bullets anymore.
i'll check the 180 grain lfngc bullets later, but i expect similar results.
will let you know.
thought this might be important to some of you.

update:
the 180s came out better.
three had .002"
four had .001"
three had .000" runout.
won't worry about these either!
