[QUOTE="Guest, post: 22422"] Bullet seating depth is a personal/weapon specific preference. Several things come into play when deciding. Most people seat the bullet where the bottom of the bearing surface/top of the boattail is seated at the base of the neck. This saves most of your available powder capacity, and gives maximum bullet support. You have to consider the magazine length if that is a factor with your gun(repeater). Considering the chambering, I would guess you have a single shot, wherein the COL wouldn't matter and the former method would apply. Hope this helps..
