[QUOTE="g0rd0, post: 1131095, member: 44168"] size and deprime a case, with the primer OUT and NO powder lube the inside of the neck and seat a bullet in it just enough to hold it in place. Measure it then chamber it. As the bolt closes it will use the rifling as a seat die and seat the bullets ojive on the lands. Slowly eject the dummy and measure the OAL now subtract 30thou from that length. That is a good starting point for that bullet in that rifle and no other. Now you can either pull and use that bullet or seat it to the less than 30thou and keep it for a die set up point [/QUOTE]
