[QUOTE="Mike 338, post: 1474653, member: 41338"] Hard to say for sure. .020 is a popular place to start. Another way of doing it would be to find your max load and then reduce it by 2%. Then load 5 shots each at seating depths of .020", .050", .080", and .110' off the lands. One group will likely shoot noticeably better than the others. That way the gun will tell you about where it likes the bullets seated. Take the best performing seating depth and then work up a load. [/QUOTE]
