[QUOTE="el matador, post: 1165423, member: 12193"] You probably won't notice much difference between .005" and .010". Try the method described in the link posted by Predator 22 and you should be able to find a good seating depth for your rifle. It's nice to have a chamber set up so that you CAN touch the lands and still fit rounds in your magazine. Doesn't mean you have to load them that long but at least you have the option if that's where you find accuracy. I would back off the powder charge a couple of grains for the seating depth test. You never know how your rifle will react to changes in seating depth. Once you have your COAL figured out you can go back and try different powder charges with your method of choice. [/QUOTE]
