The extra neck tension is where the issue is at I believe.
My opinion on the matter is that if one was going to devote the time to this, they need to be all pulled down, case necks expanded with a .263 neck turning mandrel, then proper load workup with the Wolf Powder and what ever pill you choose to put on top. .001 neck tension on a steel case ought to be more than sufficient. Even my first testing with the 123 ELD, I was getting some extremely accurate results at 40% the cost of Hornady Black.
However...now with American Gunner at the $.69 price mark....that makes the MM not really worth the effort unless you are really trying to get rid of some components.
