[QUOTE="Savage 12BVSS, post: 1813606, member: 112413"] This is exactly how I do it for every cartridge I have built a load for, I've never had a load I needed more than .030 off usually less. I start with coarse ( I like that term for it) and then work up the sweet spot powder charge, then I primer tune and have found a lot of loaders seem to ignore this step, then I really fine tune the seating depth till it tightens up that last bit. Takes a while but its worth it, the throat will slowly erode with barrel life and will need to be reset to original distance off. Brass prep and concentricity tuning completes the load. Dave [/QUOTE]
