[QUOTE="Williamb, post: 227679, member: 11980"] I would agree with you. I worked up some dummy loads .050" off the lands as a starting point. I am using a Kimber 8400. That put the nominal OAL at 2.88 and has one band exposed. The Barne's manual says COAL as 2.825 but their website also recommends loading off the lands between .030 to .070". That recommendation will clearly exceed the COAL for most production rifles and will definitely expose the band(s). I would have thought that either on their website or loading manual some mention of seating depth and bands showing would have been mentioned. Thanks - [/QUOTE]
