So I have always heard that whatever caliber you run, that is the minimum depth the bullet should be seated into the neck of the brass. Well I just worked up some loads for a rifle (7mm08) that shot well but realized they are not into the neck a ton due to the bullet being short/light for caliber (120 ballistic tips for my wife). If you included the boat tail, then yes...they would be a caliber deep .284 but my guess is you shouldn't include the boat tail. So what are the potential issues here? Thank you
