[QUOTE="benchracer, post: 1063427, member: 22069"] My own testing has demonstrated, to my satisfaction, that preferred seating depth is bullet dependent. I have also found that similar bullets will often show similar preferred seating depths, regardless of the powder tested. My best advice is to test this out for yourself. Choose a bullet to experiment with and perform the Berger seating depth test, using a starting load. Repeat the test with other suitable powders. As a control, seat your chosen bullet to book length, perform your powder charge workup with each powder you are using, then perform the Berger seating depth test for the best load with each powder. When seeking a definitive answer, a person can take the word of someone else (who may or may not be right) or test things out for one's self. IMO, testing is better. Hard data trumps opinion any day, my own included. [/QUOTE]
