How many of you reloaders have a concentricity gauge? Do you see much improvement in your shooting when you use one? I'm getting one today.

I purchased the Hornady Concentricity tool gauge.
Checked my 50 loads in 308 with Lapua cases, Nosler 175 match comp bulletts. Only had one with bullet runout above .003 but I screwed it up by with too much presure trying to correct.
My 204 loads with Hornady brass, 40 gr Bergers, RCBS Die. Had 60 loads with none over .001. This really surprised me.

I use a Forster press and dies. I borrowed a gauge from a friend to check my runout one time. Like you my runout was not out far enough to worry about. I think if you use a quality press/die combo and you take your time reloading you shouldn't have anything to worry about unless your doing competition shooting.
