Let's say you have the pressure worked up to a spot your happy with amd your at maximum length for your mag box. Your shooting 1.5" groups and wouldn't mind tweaking a bit. At what intervals do you change seating depth on a hunting rifle load? I'm thinking .020 but thought I would ask ________________________________________________ Maker of The Frankenstud Sling Keeper Proudly made in the USA Acepting all forms of payment | ||

IMO you can see a difference at .010" but I usually change .015" at a time. Your .020" may be better cause you can cover a wider range Be sure and keep track of your velocities for calculating the extreme spread and standard deviation. If there is a seating depth that has the lowest of these 2, even though it may not have the best group, you should fine tune around that seating depth ____________________________________ There are those who would misteach us that to stick in a rut is consistency - and a virtue, and that to climb out of the rut is inconsistency - and a vice. - Mark Twain | Chinese Proverb: When someone shares something of value with you and you benefit from it, you have a moral obligation to share it with others. ___________________________________ | |||
