[QUOTE="Mikecr, post: 1123040, member: 1521"] I'm not trying to complicate things for our OP. What's great about doing things right, is that they're usually easier. The tough part is gaining understanding to do things right. I don't have to average a bunch of hokey readings, and I **** sure don't have to average 20-30 shots per change. With a cleaning rod method I can find touching lands COAL & CBTO in about 10min. One measure, and it's right every time. But it doesn't matter what my land relationship(xOTL) is. What matters is producing tested best seating depth(CBTO), with every round. This is not complicated. It's simple. We could skip straight to Berger's seating testing to find best coarse CBTO. Can do this during fireforming of new brass. After powder testing(at best coarse CBTO), we can tweak seating just to shape grouping. Done. Log it. Now make every round match this -for the life of that barrel. [/QUOTE]
