    Unlikely unless you have a particularly fussy rifle.

    My rifles aren't very fussy.
    One had more than 6500 rounds fired, another more than 5500, without adjusting seating depth.
    As the throat eroded it would have changed the effective seating depth.
    Didn't seem to change the accuracy.

    The biggest source of error is usually the nut behind the bolt.
