[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1752142, member: 2736"] It is easy to jam the bullet in the rifling and not know it you really can,t check the bullet engagement using the bolt so I would recommend measuring the distance to the lands with tools made to do this with no added force applied. If you want to set the bullet this close to the lands you should also check each batch of bullets even though they are the same manufacture and stile. (They can change from batch to batch). If you are still not sure exactly where the bullet is seated, I would recommend backing off .010 and trying it. if you are sticking the bullet in my opinion you are jamming the bullet into the rifling. Just my opinion J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
