[QUOTE="codyadams, post: 1853860, member: 87243"] Having a bullet seated really deep reduces useable case capacity, and generally lowers the maximum velocity capable at a given pressure. You generally will reach said pressure with less powder as well, beacause as stated, you are reducing useable case capacity. Your HBN coating may offset that difference some however. These are just generalities for ballistics, you see the most efficient cartridges/loads usually have the bullet intruding minimally on case capacity. Obviously not hard set rules though. A couple of my rifles have exceptional performance without normal pressure signs, and the bullet is seated significantly into the powder column. [/QUOTE]
