    Yeah I've been doing that, that group is sitting about 0.085inches off the lands. I've done seating depth trials at both 46g and 46.5g, around 46g 0.005 off the lands showed a bit of promise too, but 46.5g at 0.085 off the lands was slightly more accurate. It seems to be quite picky tho, so being careful making sure loads are shooting consistently before drawing any conclusions. Oal isn't a problem, when the projectiles are seated touching the lands, they are still smaller than mag length.
    Only some days are leg days now.
