Howdy all,
I'm thinking I'm going to buy some 165gr Hornady btsp for hunting, because that's what is available at the store for a hunting bullet and my new barrel doesn't like my Speer hunting bullets much.
My plan for load development here is to first find the best seating depth for this bullet.
Does anyone have much experience in testing a wide range of seating depths with this bullet? I could just go to the cannelure, but I'd like to optimize it. I'd rather not have to go all the way from 0.010 off lands to .120 off lands .. that's a lot of primers. Should I start far from lands or close to lands with this bullet?
