[QUOTE="g0rd0, post: 1090728, member: 44168"] with each new type of bullet I use I make a dummy (un primed no powder sized brass), I lube the inside of the neck and place a bullet into it just to hold it, now I chamber it. The bullet seats as it contacts the rifling, from there I put it into the shell holder raise the ram and with the seat plunger screwed all the way up screw the seat die down on the dummy, measure the oal and subtract 30 thou that is my start point. Some of my rounds I load on the lands, some say this is not a good thing to do but I have found no ill effects. My 7rm likes 150's on the lands and 175's 25 thou off the lands [/QUOTE]
