[QUOTE="cjuve, post: 2210847, member: 31341"] I always like to do a pretty solid seating depth test prior to calling it quits on any other component, for me it all depends on what the guns intended use is where I start. Usually I would stay .010 off if for hunting and if it was for punching paper or steel I would seat into about .010 and then work out in .010 increments out to .050 off and pick the one that shoots the best at then I go .005 either way to fine tune. I usually do this near a middle charge weight. I then test this with my preferred powder charge at 500-600 yds to see how well it holds up. Here are a couple 5 shot groups I shot at 500 yds testing different seating depths in my 6 br with 107's velocity was right around 2780 with 29.2 gr varget and cci 41's I have seen to many 100 yd groups blow up at 600 yds to trust them.
