    Remington, you may find the rifle shoots more accurately at longer ranges, assuming the velocity readings were off. What did you do to keep the neck tension consistent? The higher the tension the less consistent it might likely be. Do you have a means of actually measuring the tension? I resorted to lubing bullets so as to eliminate frictional differences that may exist. There was a felt difference in seating force with dry neck and bullet and less but uniform seating force with lubed necks or bullets. I never actually did an accuracy comparison so I can't say it actually works. That was with a 303 Brit so it probably won't apply to your Win Mag.
