[QUOTE="QuietTexan, post: 2653889, member: 116181"] I try to keep the ogive end of the bearing surface above the case mouth - other than that stuff away. Be mindful of your charge weights because you do lose case capacity by stuffing the bullet down, but that's the way many older cartridges were designed in the first place. The Berger load data book puts an asterisk on seating depth saying figure it out on your own, but then they print 3.600" max for 300 RUM, which is a .230" jump in my rifle. I shot some just to see how they did that far down - they weren't the best but they made holes in the paper. [/QUOTE]
