[QUOTE="robdaniels, post: 928532, member: 35428"] 1. Wouldn't polishing the bullet each time with #0000 steel wool remove a thousandth or two, there by changing the measurement? 2. Jamming the bullet into the lands then backing off .005 could still have the bullet sticking into the lands I would think. I am working with a 150 gr SGK and the length of the ogive is long. If I stick the bullet into the lands then I can still seat it another 20 thousandths and still see rifling marks. I did it again last night and worked the depth very carefully until all the marks just began to disappear. Called that measurement good and seated .002 deeper. [/QUOTE]
