[QUOTE="liltank, post: 898070, member: 13275"] If you're doing a load test, you need to keep your lengths the same. Now if you should find a load that shoots an open clover leaf and puts up some good numbers on a chronograph, then you would start playing with seating depth to try and pull the group together. Seating depth also plays with chamber pressures. To keep all things equal in the beginning is the best route. I generally like to keep the bullets anywhere from .010-.015" off the lands. In the case of my LR .308 I have to be much deeper than that to feed out of the magazine. If I wanted to single load, then I would have it at .015" off the lands starting. [/QUOTE]
