[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 3856157, member: 15054"] Something else to check on your cases like you do not check enough things now. Size of case after firing. If you are anal about prep and measuring and annealing and get a flier or 2 in a group mark those cases and measure the Neck OD and compare it with the other cases. I have found some cases in the same lot will cause a flier and when I check neck OD I find it is different than other cases which makes me feel the alloy is not quite the same. That is if every thing was done spot on the money. I have read a bench rest shooter will take their cases and fire them and mark the fliers and shoot those marked cases again and make sure it was not the handloader error. If they get a flier out of that case a second time that case is no longer allowed to play in the shoot some tight group games. OOOHHHH So much work i almost hate it. It was nice to get a couple 6.5x55 Swedish Mausers recently to play with though. Stock trigger pull was brutal on one when trying to hold on target at 200 yards. Trigger pull would move the aim point just a tick off target and the better trigger one has 6.7 lbs of pull and does the same thing but not as bad. Now the bad trigger pull one is 2.6 to 2.7 lbs of pull. Clean break no grit or creep. I am sure you got the trigger dialed in on your rifle. Or hope so. [/QUOTE]
