[QUOTE="Pdvdh, post: 1045079, member: 4191"] There is no one size fits all answer, which is why you can't find one. Each rifle can be unique in this regard. I presume you hand load your own ammo. Maximum velocity can usually be obtained by giving the bullet some running distance before it hits the rifling lands. Best accuracy seating depths can only be determined by trial and error, and they could be different with different bullets in the same rifle. Having said this, most will claim that a reasonable starting position is to seat the rear baring surface of the bullet in the vicinity of the neck/shoulder joint. [/QUOTE]
