Is it possible that the ogive could vary .030" on different lots of Bergers?

[QUOTE="Pdvdh, post: 432588, member: 4191"] Mikecr, Thanks for jumping in as I'm up to learning proper terminology. Is there a definition for the location on the bullet where the bullet first contacts the rifling? Do you agree that the only way to know how far the bullet is seated away from the lands is to take the measurement from the case head to the bore diameter on the bullet? Which I might have wrongly defined as the 'ogive' (where the bullet first contacts the lands) in my initial post? Because I commonly measure differing OAL from case head to the tip of the seated bullets when I have closely controlled the seating depths based on case head to full bore diameter location on the bullet (where the bullet first contacts the lands) using the Hornady tool (which I think Hornady purchased from Stoney Point about one year ago).
