[QUOTE="tdot, post: 1648750, member: 91330"] Nope.... the egg. Dinosaurs were layin' eggs way before chickens rolled around. ;-) So I guess keeping with this analogy, then powder is the most important, cuz muzzle loaders were using powder, way before there was a concern for seating depth????? Sorry, that's probably too much of a stretch. But seriously, I've always found powder charges first, then seating depth. I did it this way before I had the funds for a chrono and also now that I have one. Before the chrono I found the node by shooting 200 yard ladders and looking for groupings, always had one or two groupings in a ladder test. Focused future loads towards the high side of the group with loads at 0.010". And then refined with seating depth. [/QUOTE]
