[QUOTE="Wolf76, post: 2110381, member: 75779"] Pick a middle of the road charge and fill a number of identically prepped cases. Then, start seating the bullets in groups of three at certain distances off the lands...15, 30, 45, 60, etc. Now go shoot your seating depth groups at different dots on a target at a minimum of 100 yards. You will see a group that shoots much better than the others, in a comparative sense. Then start tweaking the seating depth from there in 5 thousandths. please note, if your gun likes to group when it's dirty, start the process after it has been fouled. IME - the seating depth does not change until the throat erodes a fair bit or you go to a different bullet. Also cup n core bullets usually like 10-30 off and Berger's like jammed or very close to jammed, unless it's the hybrid. [/QUOTE]
