[QUOTE="diggler1833, post: 3644437, member: 48072"] ABLR can be a bit sensitive to seating depth. You can try going shorter, but I wouldn't go much shorter than 2.220 as the bearing surface of the ogive needs to be outside of the case neck. I don't think you'll see a ton of accuracy improvement by tearing things apart and lapping and bedding...unless the upper was incorrectly assembled originally. IMR 8208 XBR is "the" Grendel powder, but many powders work well. I had great luck right off the bat with AA2520. IMR-4895 is more temp sensitive than some of the newer stuff. The only problem with trying new powders is good luck finding them. [/QUOTE]
