Okay I get that the bullets will have varying Ogive lengths but my OAL jumps from 3.245 to 3.255, that seems way off for it to be attributed to Ogive or case length and then there is the springy feel of the handle on the bottom of the down stroke.
Thanks for the help guys Bullets in the same box will easily vary in OAL by 0.010" or more. A more accurate way to measure your handloads is the Base to Ogive length, not cartridge OAL. You need a tool to do this. The best I have found is the Hornady Lock-n-load bullet comparator. This.
