[QUOTE="nchunter182, post: 837111, member: 42015"] It's not the end of the world! Many bullets are insensitive to seating depth and some actually like a long jump. I don't have any experience with them but I've read some of the Barnes (TSX or similar I think) like a long jump. Do a thread search to read about them. Seems VLD's are the ones most finicky about seating depth but even those sometimes shoot well back from the lands. Just have to try and find out what works in your gun. I'd recommend getting the Hornady tool to measure your guns chamber against the bullets you have to see hong long they end up when seated to the lands. I'm not sure if Hornady makes modified case for the 6.5 but - better yet - you can send them a couple once fired cases (& $15) and they will make you one that fits your chamber better than an off the shelf one.
