[QUOTE="YZ-80, post: 1813078, member: 109229"] I kinda do this too. I start off at .020 off (CBTO) and manipulate the charge first. If I achieve 1/4 to 1/2 MOA out to 300, I never even mess with seating depth again, other than to chase the throat. The closest I’ve ever seated anything is .015 off. Maybe I’m wrong, but the way I look at “closer but not too close” is better as a general rule. In my opinion, neck tension, concentricity and case prep uniformity play more significant roles in tightening groups up than the “jump”. It’s the last variable on my list of things to manipulate.
