The bullet/neck spindle casting bore is off from the spindle shank diameter. The bullet spindle is fine if you set the right tension between the spindles, The neck spindle, for me, needs a custom pilot to give good readings. I will see if I need a custom spindle made to prevent any movement.
I am about to get one, but everyone else puts it to the low side then makes the straightening adjustment? ( i.e. pushing the high side towards the centre of the round) Maybe this is why you a making it worse?
Hi Neill. I have checked with various reloads and the same thing happens. In a further video I will explain the problems that can be an inherent problem with your brass that contributes to the inability to straighten a round. There are many possibilities that can not be corrected with the idea of straightening a crooked round. If your bullet is co-axially misaligned to your case centre line then that is basically it. I have tried it many years ago but I was just bluffing myself.
@@fanatacreloading5399 Thank you for the reply. I understand there are other factors like a miss formed case shape that could be a major factor in the concentric axis shape of the brass as opposed to a slightly misaligned bullet seating. Those factors in cases will undoubtedly not be fixed by this concentricity gauge. But, let’s say the case is perfect, but we have a slight misaligned bullet for example. I was trying to understand the correct way to correctly realign it. You added to my confusion by saying to find the high side then apply the screw correction. Would this not be pushing on the low side and adding to the error. You undoubtedly know what you meant, you just may have put across a mixed message?

Had new neck spindle made at tighter clearances made a huge difference. Neck runs .005 bullet.0025
