[QUOTE="benchracer, post: 493761, member: 22069"] I've done load development both ways, powder charge first then seating depth and vice versa. I am not convinced that it really matters. I have had good results either way. More and more, I am convinced that developing a consistent and methodical approach that works for you is more important than what variable you change first. FWIW, I do my initial work up using the OCW method found here: [url=http://optimalchargeweight.embarqspace.com/#/ocw-instructions/4529817134]OCW Overview - Dan Newberry's OCW Load Development System[/url] Following that, I fine tune my seating depth using the procedure recommended by Berger Bullets for use with their VLD's. I have found Berger's method of tuning seating depth to be effective with a variety of bullets. That is my little "rain dance" and it works for me. My advice is to develop a "rain dance" that works for you and tweak as needed. [/QUOTE]
