[QUOTE="baydog, post: 923933, member: 76072"] Ok I understand neck sizing but I've been seating the bullet as close to the lans as i can get it but have figured out that lighter grain bullets aren't as long as heavier grain bullets when loading for any one particular caliber. So if i take the time and extend the bullet as close to the rifle lans as i can get it with a lighter grain bullet and do the same thing for the same caliber gun but heavier grain bullet then for the lighter grain bullet it isn't going to be seated as deep in the neck as a heavier grain bullet because of length . So isn't a heavier grain bullet going to create more pressure build and release than a lighter grain bullet that isn't set in the neck as far because of trying to set as close to the lans as i can get it....Still trying to figure out which is more important, less bullet jump or bullet depth in the neck for a more consistent pressure build and release..hasn't the bullet got to be set deep enough to create a good consistent pressure build for a good consistent bullet release? Or is setting as close to the lans but not using the complete neck for good pressure build and release more important...Thanks baydog [/QUOTE]
