[QUOTE="xxtavixx, post: 1276888, member: 99828"] So the more I read, the more people suggest starting at .020 off the lands and trying different powders all at .02. From there they take the best shooting powder and then adjust the bullet seating depth. I have heard many people suggest that anything furher than .05 from the lands is wasteful and create excessive pressure. Is there enough truth in this where pulling the bullets would make sense? My loads are at 2.802 and they would touch the lands at 28.64, so I have a "gap" of .062 - it seems like bumping them .042 closer would be the normal starting point. Thank you for all the input again! [/QUOTE]
