[QUOTE="rangerdanger, post: 1324691, member: 91222"] Seating to a full caliber diameter would put me about .140 off the lands in this factory Remington 700 Varmint 22-250 with these berger 55 grain VLD's. Im about .010 off the lands when seating to a little less than half the caliber diameter. This morning I shot some loaded to .010 off the lands (shallow seat) and it shot several groups with an average of .47MOA at 200 yards with no pressure signs. Several of those rounds were .006 runout with the sinclair concentricity guage but they shot better than any other bullets that ive ran through this rifle. Ill try some seated all the way down to a full caliber diameter and see how they do. Any idea of what kind of issues seating bullets shallow can cause or what I should look for? I figured this would be the same as only sizing the top half of the neck like some folks do. But it sounds like only sizing the top half of the case neck may be ill-advised as well. [/QUOTE]
