[QUOTE="boomtube, post: 513794, member: 9215"] "Silver" brass is brass. With a very thin layer of nickle plating. Nickle looks cool but it adds nothing and can be a PITA for reloaders to work with. If you get some for free, use it, but don't pay for it. BR shooters do a lot of things that are not only meaningless for the rest of us but is often actually detrimental to our accuracy. Seating in or on the lands is one. IF it were true, or even possible, to mathmatically pick the 'best OAL' then doing a lot of measuring and calulating might have some meaning. But it's NOT possible, so all any of us really needs is a STARTING length that safely prevents bullet jamming and use it as a fixed reference to work back from. A seating/OAL range difference of 4 thou is trivial for factory rifles and even for many competitive BR shooters. [/QUOTE]
