[QUOTE="dok7mm, post: 1529594, member: 90080"] Nope, not what I said. If you don't have a comparator, use your OAL instead of a comparator. It's not as accurate, but will work. So, one more time. Seat a bullet (we're talking the bearing surface) approximately .280 inches into neck, measure your OAL make 3 of these (6 is better, shoot in 2 groups of 3). Then seat another group .010" OAL deeper and so on, until you see the junction of the bearing surface/ ogive very near the mouth of the case. That's as far as you go. No offence, but you really need to find an experienced reloader to show you, step by step, until you get this squared away. We all started at zero knowledge, so don't feel bad. Good luck at figuring this out. PS. You can shoot the test at 100 with a starting load. [/QUOTE]
