[QUOTE="ASP785, post: 2333551, member: 12170"] I use my progressive for pistol ammunition and 223 ammunition. I have a single stage I use for "accurate" loading but I can tell you that in my 223 rifle there is no discernible difference in accuracy for the same load, loaded on either the progressive or single stage, utilizing the same dies and powder. I have posted photos on this board of the results, but sub moa was the norm. I have 4 sets of 223 dies. My 22.99 RCBS small base sizer produces the least amount of case runout...even less than the fancy Gold Medal Match set I have. Go figure. In reloading, take nothing for granted and measure everything you have the ability to. For my Surgeon I measure all of my extruded powder charges on an RCBS charge master. My brass prep consists of Lapua brass (yes that is a prep step) and uniforming the primer pockets. That's it. I neck size using Imperial wax but I do not use an expander ball so I do not lubricate the case necks. Even on the single stage it does not take too long to crank out 100 rounds. [/QUOTE]
