[QUOTE="Gunpoor, post: 932051, member: 8358"] Metzger, as long as you have enough neck tension to hold the bullets that seating depth is fine. I have a Browning Abolt II in 308Win that I load 165 Speer BTSP bullets in and have to jump them somewhere over .200" to get to the lands, but it will consistently shoot .25MOA. I like to seat bullets close to the rifling but sometimes it just won't happen in an off the shelf rifle. A long jump doesn't mean the rifle won't shoot well, but it usually means load development takes more trying. [/QUOTE]
