[QUOTE="USCGLongBow, post: 963399, member: 81191"] I did this with the Silvertip already, that is how I determined seating depth for loading. My gun has an unusually short throat and the bullet will catch in the rifling if not seated that deeply. I actually didn't believe my original readings, and left the bullet out .005" with my first box. But after not being able to close the bolt on half the rounds, and having two bullets stick in the rifling and pull out of the casing, I settled on this seating depth for safety. [/QUOTE]
