[QUOTE="therifleman556, post: 1348408, member: 101898"] I just picked up a sweet little Sako A1 in triple deuce. From what I understand this rifle is about 30 years old and wears a like-vintage Leupold VX-compact 2-7. The previous owner claims to have only put 10 rounds thru it. I'll load some pictures later. My question for you folks that load these is about seating depth. I've got enough magazine length to seat 53 grain V-Maxes to the rifling, but that leaves the bullet only about 40% into the case neck (not counting the boat tail). Do you still load close to the lands, or seat them deeper for concentricity? I'll obviously do a seating depth test, I'm just wondering what other people have found. [/QUOTE]
