[QUOTE="Mikecr, post: 2351613, member: 1521"] Berger laid it out right here (go back to page 1). I'm saying that best seating is different and independent of 'tune'. But full seating testing will collapse a powder tune, which is why you should never do this testing from a powder tune, so that you can see better what seating is doing. I personally start ~5thou off and go 20thou increments to 125thou for coarse (full) seating testing. I don't bother with an in-the-land relationship as it's precarious and of no value unless I could not find best CBTO otherwise. Never happened yet. So that's #3 on my list Then last, after all else, I go back to determine my seating window and pick the CBTO within it that provides tightest grouping. That's #6 on my list, and about as close to a 'tuning' affect as could be considered with seating. But the only reason it affects tuning is because it's being carried out from a powder tuned state at that point. L.Sherm, obviously my way, and Berger's way, are not the only. It's different, you gotta give it that. There was another different once: Me trying, before Berger, for ~20yrs to convince people that VLDs did not have to be in or even near lands to shoot well. That all anybody needed to do was FULL SEATING TESTING to see this for themselves. And back then to today 'some really good 1000 yard BR shooters' would not entertain the notion. They are still not doing full seating testing. [/QUOTE]
