[QUOTE="benchracer, post: 710731, member: 22069"] If you used all five sets of bullets, instead of just the three finest grits, my guess is that you moved the throat forward some. I would start by determining the COAL that touches the rifling with your desired bullets. Then load 5 rounds at max COAL, 5 more at max COAL minus .040, 5 at max COAL minus .080, and 5 at max COAL minus .120. This test comes from Berger's website and I have found it to work with every bullet I load. Most likely, one of those seating depths will show good accuracy. You can fine tune from there if you feel the need. [/QUOTE]
