[QUOTE="rangerman, post: 2529769, member: 8851"] I have always heard you need to seat the bullet into the case neck at least as much as the diameter of the bullet. For example if you’re seating .308 bullets you should seat them into the neck at a minimum of .308 past the boat tail. Any problem not seating this deep if you’ve got a chamber with excessive free bore and you’re wanting to seat the bullet closer to the lands? Could you safely seat them approximately half of the bullet diameter into the case nexk? Thanks in advance for your help. [/QUOTE]
