Single best reloading tip for accuracy?
I've been reloading my own rifle ammo for a couple of years to save money, but I'm becoming more interested in consistency. I shoot either a Remngton 700 in .270 or a Swedish Mauser 6.5 x 55, both scoped-- lately I've been favoring the Sweidsh. I've got RCBS and Lee reloading dies, Lee case trimmers, and I use Hodgdon powders, CCI primers, and Hornady or Sierra bullets with reasonably good ballistics. But at the range, at 200 yards I sometimes get 4" groups-- not very impressive. Factory ammo does significantly better.
It's pretty clear to me that you can spend a lot of money reloading-- some match bullets cost $2.50 each (ouch!), and equipment can be quite expensive. But for those of us on a budget, what's the single most important thing we can do to improve the accuracy of our handloads?
I have designed and loaded match ammo for three decades.
There are some extra steps you can incorporate into your reloading practices that will help out allot.
1. Invest in an inside primer flash hole reamer and use it.
2. Always use the same companies brass. Same primers. Buy your primers by the 1,000 each box and not the 100 for more consistancy.
3. Always ream your case mouths - something rifle shooters skip.
4. If you crimp - then you must always trim your brass to a constant standard length. Even with a taper crimp on rifle.
5. Measure each powder load one at a time.
6. Your finished rounds must all have the same OAL.
7. Buy a coaxal bullet tester. Separate you rounds by measurement. The lower the number the better, like .001 to .003 for long distance, etc. Anything over .027 is plinker garbage and if you get allot of these then you need to buy a set of Competition dies or just a Competition Seater die.
There are some other steps, but, these will have the most impact on your accuracy.
Hope this helps
