[QUOTE="Aldon, post: 661967, member: 20047"] There is a chance that others have same measurement but it is not necessairly a given. However this is a good measurement to start with. Load some rounds using whatever methodology you decide upon to determine accurate, OCW or Ladder or some combination of them or some personal method. Once determined, you can fine tune your load for potentially more accuracy by loading the same load at varying groups of seating depths. The VLD's seem especially sensitive to seating depth. The short of it is that there are really no short cuts. Treat your rifle and loads as individual in nature. And another thing, as the rifle is used, or fired it eats away at the throat. That is the connection points degrade away. Your rifle will start to tell you when you need to go through the seating depth tweak again. [/QUOTE]
