[QUOTE="Jud96, post: 1861468, member: 69478"] Personally, I like to try and have the bearing surface of the bullet to take up at least 3/4 of the case neck. So for this example, I would want about 5mm of bearing surface, or roughly 0.200, of bullet in the case neck. In a perfect world it’s recommended to have the bullet’s bearing surface to be seated in the full length of the neck, but that’s not always possible. Doing this will give your bullet good grip from the case neck and keep it well supported. I would start shooting groups at that seating depth and see how they do. If they’re not satisfactory, then adjust your seating depth further away or closer to the rifling in very small increments. In your case, I would adjust in 0.1mm increments. Sorry I am not good with the metric system, but that should equate to about 0.004 of adjustment. [/QUOTE]
