    I think Stang was referring to F class calibers. May be some different calibers than what are typically used in BR.
    My view on this topic is that this is somewhat voodoo-ish. Falls under the heading of "well, I guess it can't hurt, and if it makes you feel better, then it might make you shoot a little more confidently.". I also agree that if there really is any benefit to be had in doing this, that it would apply more so to the long action rounds, like full sized magnums or the '06 variants. Just my opinion. And we all know about opinions... Lol

    i have an old friend who won the year end agregate award twice at williamsport.
    with a lefty savage action no less. that was years back before all the sophistication we have today.
    he did index his loads and felt it was important. he spun the loaded round and marked the high spot.
    he then loaded each round exactly the same way. he also weighed his bullets and sorted his cases.
    if it didnt help for sure it didnt hurt either. i dont think anybody else ever won that award twice.
