[QUOTE="Oakster, post: 521685, member: 13684"] I have a few questions for you guys. I am a fairly inexperienced reloader. I have a few good loads for .22-250, .30-06 and .223. My load for .257 Weatherby, .243, 325 WSM and .338 need some work. My question is, where do I start with seating depth. I do not have the tools to measure my distance from the lands. I have been seating at the manual COAL. How likely is this to cause me trouble? Also, my new custom .240 Weatherby doesnt have the factory free-bore that would be in a Weatherby rifle. Can I still shoot factory ammo in this gun? When searching through reloading manuals and picking a bullet - powder combination, what do you look for to start? I have not considered case density previously, but the horrible .243 loads I did with IMR 4064 are like only 60%. Does this cause me some issues? [/QUOTE]
