[QUOTE="RDavies, post: 649178, member: 34214"] I dont understand when lots of people post about VLD s being finicky to find a seating depth. I gave up on testing seatings depths of the berger VLDs a while ago. I load all 130,140gn 6.5VLDs, 168 and 180gn 7mm VLDs (in 284 and 7mm/300WSM) at .015" jam and the 105gn VLDs at .010" jam. Back when I was experimenting a bit, I came up with these numbers and they are what I have stuck with in 7-8 different barrels used strictly for F Class competition at 300-1000yds (and sometimes longer). Yes, if the throat started to wear, they wouldnt group very well, until I seated them back into the lands more. [/QUOTE]
