[QUOTE="Tiny Tim, post: 1813593, member: 87887"] Last couple of rifles I have done load development for, I have used the Berger method. In all fairness, I was shooting Berger bullets. It worked well for me, but I'm not chasing bugholes yet. I do the coarse seating depth shooting at 100 yards and powder development at 300 yards minimum. Final seating depth to follow. Coarse seating depth changes after powder development can potentially change pressure and move you out of a node, or even be dangerous at maximum loads. No expert, but has worked on these two rifles, quickly attaining an honest .5-.6 moa load with precious little barrel wear. [/QUOTE]
