I have learned how to measure my lands. In doing so I've learned that I should begin by seating my bullets at .005 off of the lands.

I am finding it difficult to get my seating die to seat the same death on bullet after bullet. When I measure the olive I measure an approximate range of +/- .004.

Would I be better served by gettIng a micrometer seating die?

If so, which one? Of course money is always a factor. I also see that each manufacturer sells about 5-10 different versions of their micrometer seating die which makes things even more confusing.

I am a perfectironist, if my teacher tells me that my bullet should be .005 off the lands then me measuring between .003 to .010 off the lands is unacceptable to me.

I do not use match brass or bullets so given that information is this something that I'm just going to have to deal with?
