[QUOTE="Lefty7mmstw, post: 2197779, member: 48043"] I've been running rl33 in my 300rums for years with a 225 hdy hpbt and a 215 in rem brass... I would run the lower charge and work with it a bit on seating depth/ possibly change primer also to see if a slight pressure curve change will help. Rl33 isn't that sensitive to temp. unless you are on the wall pressure wise... A switch from a 215 to a wlrm will sometimes change things for the better. I run a LOT of 215's but not all of my loads have settled on that primer as the best. I often forget to change primers though lately as the load comes in the first pass... I also wouldn't worry too much about seating slightly below the shoulder/ neck juncture... Imo the doughnut isn't usually present (enough to cause issues anyway) unless you've had to mod your brass or turn it, and even then it isn't enough to be of bother if you turn the growth every sizing. I'm running a lot of my heavy's to mag. length which necessitates rather deep seating, and I'm getting very good groups anyway with little to no measurable doughnut. [/QUOTE]
