[QUOTE="AZShooter, post: 1060205, member: 5219"] The intent of the four seating depths is to help you find an depth that shows promise. I once messed around with a 308 and seating depth to prove a point. I progressively seated deeper in .005" increments. The groups would tighten progressively then open progressively to repeat until I ran out of ogive to hold the bullet in the case mouth. All you can do is seat to fit and feed from your magazine if you want a repeater and work up a powder charge. Note which charge weight shoots best then begin seating the bullets deeper in the case. If you have a seating die with a micrometer top it is easy to try .005" or .010" increments to see if you can find more accuracy. If the VLDs won't shoot switch to the hybrids. I can just about guarantee the 168 classic hunter will shoot in your rifle. I have helped load for four 7 Rem mags in the last two years and ALL shot this bullet with a variety of jumps to lands.
