I agree that there comes a point where we start to over think such things and any differences get lost in the noise of environment factors and shooter error.
Oh and Guffy I don't use the split case myself any more. I prefer sizing only the first few thousandths of the neck with a bushing die or doing a very light neck sizing using a collet die
Too tight a neck will give errors because the lands will dig into the bullet jacket or even into the core throwing the reading completely off. After chambering if there is any sort of groove in the bullet where it contacted, toss it and start over
I don't do this but if you want to get real anal pull the extractor before chambering
