[QUOTE="Mikecr, post: 1009747, member: 1521"] Well you might have gotten lucky and it just happens that a seating depth pulled from your butt is exactly the right setting. But why would it be? And now adjustment of seating is as likely to collapse your 1/2" performance peak from powder(changing two things at once), making seating appear to be NEEDED at 40-DTL. I think this is where most end up, and then they assume it's best seating. Some are relying on high starting pressure for their cartridges, and so they are going to assume ~10-ITL is best (for underbore cartridges it probably is). Mostly short range competitors here, with loads all but completely known up front. [/QUOTE]
