    This. If you stop seating according to the seating *pressure*, then you must be making seating *depth* variable.

    I've never heard of @mickey Duck's trick of rotating the case with half seated bullet 180 degrees and then completing the bullet seating...makes perfect sense for concentric seating.

    Might also stay up all night tonight, pull and double re-seat all my .22LRs so I'm sure they're all done right... (-:
