[QUOTE="Mad Professor, post: 3409152, member: 5316"] Bullet quality and consistency will have a big bearing on the range they seat at. You are not seating the bullet at the tip, but are measuring at the tip. When using cast, plated, and coated bullets, you will greater deviations that when using most jacketed bullets. You can sometimes change or modify the seating die to get better consistency. The other thing I have seen is the bullet pushing back forward before crimp with compressed loads. It will vary because of neck tension. [/QUOTE]
