Gents,

Been handloading for since I was 14, but now I'm really trying to understand the smaller details of making REALLY accurate ammunition.

I have always seated bullets just off the lands by .020" or so, and called it good. While at the SCI show in Reno, I was speaking with the guys from Barnes and they were telling my that
for their bullets I should seat the bullets much deeper in the case, as their bullets like a little "jump" to get into the barrel.

You guys can save me a bunch of range time here. Have any of you taken a load you like and just changed bullet seating depth in increments to find the sweet spot? Were there big differences in group size?

Thanks,
Michael
