[QUOTE="anachronism, post: 264209, member: 4134"] If you seat the bullet too deep, you increase the distance from the bullet ogive to the rifling lands & your accuracy often suffers because of this. Most guys seat their bullets closer to the lands, not further away. Also, seating a bullet deeper in a case raises your chamber pressures, possibly to dangerous levels if done to excess. Seating depth is really a relationship between the case length, chamber dimensions, including the chamber throat & the bullet. There's a lot going on here! [/QUOTE]
