Thanks

I bought a chino made ball-mic (locally) and with a tiny bit of adjustment with the tool that came with it, does a good job. Much better than stuffing about digital calipers for a radial thickness.

Thanks for all the feedback, really interesting.

I will try my .291 bushing and if I experience any accuracy issues I will try reducing the tension with a larger bushing.

My experience is somewhat limited and relied on the support of a local gunsmith/BR shooter to help me.

I have just ordered a forster press and mitutoyo calipers so looking forward to making this a staple evening activity.
