[QUOTE="Michael Courtney, post: 908428, member: 28191"] Since some people missed it I should emphasize the need to determine and enter the right length for the full density part of the bullet. For plastic tipped bullets, the full density length is the total length minus the length of the plastic tip (the length of the metal part of the bullet). For open tipped match bullets, the full density length is the total length minus the depth of the open tip (as determined by inserting a mechanical pencil lead or small drill bit). [/QUOTE]
