I bought a Forster Ultra seating die with the mic adjuster to help me with bullet runout issues (previously around .006"). The Forster improved that (now I'm getting about .0015" to .0035", but honestly, I thought it would be better than that; more like .0015" or better on most rounds. Am I being too picky, or is something wrong?
For reference, all necks have been turned to about a half thousandth of concentricity, and runout measured just above the shoulder for all cases was at .0015" or less. Sized using a Redding FL bushing die. Bullet is a 7mm 162gr A-Max.
I'm trying to improve my group sizes. I'm not a match shooter, but I'm looking to clean up my reloading game, since I'm thinking about getting started down that road.
Any help would be appreciated!
