I had a batch (40) of 338LM 300grain NCC's that I pulled because I thought I might have overcharged them.
I noticed my reloading balance beam setting on 110 grains a few days after reloading. Since my desired charge is 102 grains, I decided to play it safe. I pulled all the bullets and weighed the charges - they were all correct @ 102 grains. I figure I must have bumped the scale sometime after reloading. So now I have a new reloading Protocall - I take a picture of my balance beam settings to include with load documentation.
Anway, I went out shooting today and my performance was poor. My Christiansen long range mesa usually shoots sub-moa but today I was 1 to 4 moa after I shot all 40 rounds.
The only variable that changed was the pulling of the bullets. I used a RCBS collet puller. Do you think using pulled bullets is what messed up my accuracy?
