[QUOTE="Shane Lindsey, post: 2766369, member: 25831"] Seating depth. BUUT as you mention velocity isn’t a concern, some guns/bullets shoot better slower. If ES is not good, you may be trying to push it too fast. Are you mag feeding? Does it matter? If single feeding or mag allows, I start at .010” off lands. If it is tight, I will go .003”, .006”, .009” off lands. Sometimes I will go as much as .010”, .020”, .030” between to get potential, then go with .003” If no potential, I get more aggressive with seating by about .050” off and so on. Some rifles will jump a long ways and do well. By thirty rounds or so, if no potential, I look to another powder. [/QUOTE]
