[QUOTE="cstilt, post: 309760, member: 19720"] I'm kinda interested in this as well. I'm currently working up loads using the same article only I'm using accubonds in a 270win. My way was to first work through the seating depths to find a general idea of about where that should be. I went with COAL first because I figured if I had a good charge it would probably be above the starting load. So by finding a good depth with low pressure loads I figure i was able to save some wear on the rifle and brass. If I went with powder first I was afraid of the pressure spikes like you mentioned around the closely seated bullets. My plan now is that I've got a good seating depth is to work through the charges and find a good one. Then I'll vary the depth a little on each side of what I have found to fine tune it. I'm going to move it by 0.02 instead of the 0.04 like the article says. I've got my fingers crossed. [/QUOTE]
