Bobin brings up a good point - what is acceptable runout? I've always been of the opinion that anything less than 0.003 measured on the bullet ogive or slightly forward is acceptable. I've never owned a runout gauge but have used them. My basic test was roll a cartridge across glass - if can see wobble its too much. I'd guess that was about 0.005" runout. I tried it today using measurements and I can see runout greater than 0.005 using something very flat. Used my granite counter top this AM.
This is going to open a whole new level of geekery for me............
