[QUOTE="crkckr, post: 1664215, member: 78056"] Seating a bullet farther out will not give you pressure spikes unless it touches the lands. As long as you're not touching the lands you'll be ok. Going the other way, seating deeper, *will* raise pressure but how much is hard to say. Knowing how much powder to reduce when seating deeper is a guessing game, or reloading voodoo as I call it. Depends on the bullet shape and type of propellant and how close to max you are before seating deeper. Could be a grain or two, or even 3 or 4. Err with caution is all I can say!
