i use the rifles chamber to seat my base line bullet. this seats it to lands with nose sticking way in there. i then pull the dumby rd from the chamber that just seated the bullet. drop it in the shell holder and raise the rame to full stroke. i then screw the seater die down on the dumby rd untill i feel it contact the bullet. this is contacting on the Ogive.
ounce i have the die set here i then lower the ram and turn the seater die down about a half turn. then raise the ram back up to full stroke. this seats the bullet alittle further and off the lands just a hair.
thats my method. its seemed to work so far in my rifles. all are seated this way.
my 3006 is seated long in my ruger. im scrapn nose and tail inside the magwell. 165 nosler balistic tips are long.
ps.
quick what cartridge does rock have pictured, blue tips are 257 cal.
