Make sure you dont power down, stay at full power, you did not mention microsteps, Are you expecting higher resolution and accuracy than is possible with a stepper. You can see regular accuracy error due to the stepper when I tested a linear axis http://www.archivist.info/cnc/screw_error/
I also have seen some terrible rotary tables and some good ones, there is a basic error at worm and gear rate which will/should be better at higher reduction ratios, all the low reduction I have measured were bad (up to .7 degree error and worm wheel rate) they were all below 60:1 the 72:1 I tested was within specification and used for some gear cutting masters I made. The Vertex 90:1 I use seems ok not done the full test I did on the 72:1. Method was angle dekkor and precision polygon.
