[QUOTE="Dgutter, post: 492910, member: 32130"] After more research I think I have finally answered my own question. Read an article on the website that explained it quite well. Thought anyone reading my insane question may also benefit from this. In a way I kind of feel like an idiot not realizing this myself. Anyhow here's the quote: "If you are single feeding only, try to get the bullet as close to the lands as possible. However, I don't want the bullet to fully engrave. If the bullet is loaded with little to no runout, having it on the lands is not necessary for bug-hole accuracy. The key is ensuring that the bullet will fully engrave in the lands WELL BEFORE the bullet leaves the neck. If the bullet has to make an unsupported jump, no matter how small, sub MOA accuracy will be very tough to achieve." Makes sense to me considering a bullet should be seated in the neck considerably more than the distance it is from the lands. I apologize for the long discussion I created. [/QUOTE]
