When seating the bullet w/cannelure shouldn't the bullet be seated to the cannelure? I know you have to check for oal but in general doesn't that work pretty close to the cannelure?
thanks

Avoid the neck-shoulder junction (donut) as there is nothing good to be found there.
It all gets a lot easier when you stop minding a book, and consider what you actually have in your hand.
You can begin with a slightly reduced load (from popular) and run Berger's seating tests(pinned here).

You won't see pressure go up until you seat bullet bearing into neck-shoulder junction, or put the bullet against the lands. Avoid the neck-shoulder junction(donut) as there is nothing good to be found there.
