    Why did you not start with the projectile seated to manufacturers specs? They spend millions and hours working with highly sophisticated equipment
    and some first time loader thinks they know better, I have been hand loading since 1969 and still start with manufacturers seating depth when trying
    a new projectile, Always start with getting the powder charge sorted out first, Your loads are stringing vertical which is usually a sign of bad ignition
    horizontal stringing is a bad hold, Seat the projectiles to Nosler's specs start with their start load shoot three shot groups in .5 grain steps until you find
    the most accurate powder charge forget about velocity until you have the rifle grouping a 2960fps hit is better than a 3100fps miss.
