[QUOTE="keithcandler, post: 130590, member: 3728"] [b]Mule, the pressure does go up somewhat......[/b] as you seat the bullet closer to the lands. There are several issues here. First, if you work up your load jumping 0.050, then use that same load with the bullet touching the lands, you may see pressure signs if your origional load was right on the boarder line of being a max load. The main issue is that most rifles prefer a certain amount of distance from the lands to touching the lands, and every gun is different. 308's are so accurate, I don't think that you will have much trouble finding a very accurate load.
