[QUOTE="Lonewolf74, post: 1307044, member: 96274"] I'm not an expert and haven't been doing this very long but put in a ton of research before I ever started reloading so I like to think I started in a little more advanced state. Any who what I do and what makes the most sense to me is starting out finding your charge weight at the longest OAL you will possibly use. For me this means starting with the bullet touching the lands because I don't want to use jam in a hunting rig. But if my bullet combination is too long to fit in the magazine then I would start at the max mag length cus I don't want to single feed my hunting rifles. This way I can find max pressure and work my way backwards to fine tune seating depth and not worry about running into a pressure spike at the charge weight I found. [/QUOTE]
