[QUOTE="dysphonic, post: 840584, member: 34631"] Hi there, I am about to start reloading a 7mm weatherby mag in a mark v weatherby and would value some advice from those of you who have done so. Normally when I begin a load work up I start by focusing on the powder charge. I tend to seat the bullets 0.01 - 0.02 off the lands (unless i am loading barnes tsx then i start at 0.04) and leave it there until I have identified the powder charge I will use. When that is done I play around with seating depth to see if I can tighten the groups. However, with the extra free bore in the weatherby mark v I understand that it is unlikely I will be able to get that close to the lands. Should I instead use magazine length as a starting point and if so how far off that length should I back off-in terms of bullet seating? Your thoughts and suggestions would be much appreciated. Cheers [/QUOTE]
