[QUOTE="Chawlston, post: 103420"] Powder charge, neck tension and seating depth are all in concert with each other. The starting point is usually the neck tension and it depends on if it is a bolt gun, or semi-auto. For bolt guns and trying to get the absolute highest degree of accuracy, most competitive shooters of smaller calibers lean toward the less neck tension the better. On the semi-autos you may need a little more to ensure the bullet is held firm during semi-auto feeding. James [/QUOTE]
