[QUOTE="QuietTexan, post: 2086829, member: 116181"] Are these the same make/model of 85gr HPBT bullets? Or is the 85gr just coincidental and they're two drastically different bullets? If they're the same make and model, this is just a lot change for the same component, not a "new" component that you have to work back up for. Normally for a lot change I would say keep the same seating depth, and: [LIST] [*]If you aren't at max, go 0.1-0.2gr high and low around your change (or whatever an appropriate ~1% change would be) [*]If you're at max, drop 0.2-0.4gr below (two steps down) and shoot back up to it [*]9-15 shots to re-verify you're in the node still [/LIST] If you only have 50 and aren't at the max I would load using the same data as the previous lot. If you are at the max... that's your call based on what signs you're seeing on the brass. Big difference between "book max" and seeing spooky signs. [/QUOTE]
