[QUOTE="benchracer, post: 812970, member: 22069"] I agree with Mikecr. Try the instructions on the Berger website for finding your optimum seating depth: [url=http://www.bergerbullets.com/getting-the-best-precision-and-accuracy-from-vld-bullets-in-your-rifle/]Getting the Best Precision and Accuracy from VLD bullets in Your Rifle | Berger Bullets[/url] I have found these instructions to work even with non-VLD type bullets. Once you have found your optimum seating depth, follow these instructions for your powder charge run up: [url=http://optimalchargeweight.embarqspace.com/#/ocw-instructions/4529817134]OCW Overview - Dan Newberry's OCW Load Development System[/url] This will get you to the max accuracy potential of your rifle and do so in a minimum number of rounds. One note on seating depth with your 22-250: As others have mentioned, you probably won't be able to seat your bullet out far enough to touch the rifling. In that case, seat it out as far as you can, while leaving enough bullet in the case neck for the bullet to remain securely seated. Shorten your seating depth from there in accordance with Berger's instructions. [/QUOTE]
