Feathermax, is your load compressed? If so, bullet seating will drive you nuts. You're not doing anything wrong, like you said, .006 is, well, pretty small. There are a variety of things to worry about in reloading, I guess you have to pick your fight on what you personally want to worry about. There's entirely too many variables to worry about them all!! Unless, well, you gotta ton a time on your hands. I worry about them all to a point, but my perfect measured finished product is probably only 50% of the rounds, the rest slightly off under or high anywhere from powder to length to bullet to case to you name it. You'll get a feel for it as you go along, especially on the range when you knock down groups that you're proud of!! I just loaded 150 rounds of hornet, all compressed loads, and kept the measurement off the ogive +/- .003 on the vast majority, keep at it.
