No, a good 4 jaw is easier to adjust. I have 2 Rohm 4 jaw independent chucks that are a dream to adjust because their tolerances are very tight, yet they allow smooth movement. I own 2 Sherline 4 jaw chucks and those adjust to zero without much trouble at all. I suspect a lot of guys think a 4 jaw is a 4 jaw and there isn't much difference ... it ain't so. I used to own a Yuasa 4 jaw that for some reason was a challenge to use. It was new and felt smooth but it took so much longer to dial things in. Never did like that chuck.
I don't own a Pratt 4 jaw but I'm not surprised it works well for you.
