    Oh, and jamming anything will ruin your life. Let them jump and offset any of this having to measure projectiles to the nearest.000000000000001 to aviod causing problems.

    Did you read the rest of the post?

    You commented earlier about how inconsistent some projectiles OAL (or bearing surface) are. Yet knowing this to be fact you still want to load your rounds so that they are right on the lands. If you cant see the potential for pressure spikes in this senario you probably shouldnt be reloading.

    Or you can jump them a bit and not have to worry about measuring every projectile to ensure you arent jamming them and getting the corrosponding spikes.

    My personal opinion is that reloading is about consistency. I believe that a jump removes one less variable that can lead to potential drama.

    In saying all of that, do what ever makes you happy.
