[QUOTE="bigngreen, post: 288224, member: 13632"] I'm just learning how to find the best loading for rifles also and I found the Berger article at the top of this forum helpful. I basically did what was suggested in the article but I went on lands, -.010, -.020, -.030, -.060. I found that the groups tightened up around -.010 so I loaded -.010, -.015, -.020. I got a .380 group out with the -.015. I have played with 4 different bullets and all are best @ -.015. I don't know if there is an exact method that is the best, but this worked for me with finding the best length to seat the bullet at, that being said I have the magazine length to seat anywhere I need to and I have stayed away from jamming bullets into the lands because of pulling the bullet out of the case senerio. I am going to give the ladder test a try for finding the right load. I am really interested in the recent threads about this. Go slow and have fun. [/QUOTE]
