[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 3736143, member: 15054"] Seating depth makes huge gains also. I had a great load for 6.5 CM and decided to chase the lands and moved the bullet from 2.802 to 2.840 which put me .005" off the lands No touching of the lands. The 2.802 5 shot group was in the .770" area and the 2.840 was a shotgun pattern making me think what is wrong with this rifle. Took the same handloaded batch of bullets I had seated long and seated them deeper into the case and shot them and 2 went into the same hole and a third creased the edge of those first 2 shots. Hornady 140 A-Max bullets. [/QUOTE]
