By the way, for those who believe that differing powders or powder charges have no bearing on the ideal seating depth, if your
think about Chris Long's theory and his paper on barrel timing, and harmonics, I think the only conclusion you can come to is that
powders, bullets, and rifles are all one system, and they all have to work together to make the load a precise and accurate load in that specific rifle. It all matters. There are optimum combinations of powder and bullets, and seating depths for that specific bullet that work best in certain specific rifles with certain chamber set ups and barrel length, and barrel diameter that minimize harmonics
to optimize accuracy and precision. Its a total system that has to be tuned, not just the bullet or the bullet seating. It all matters
and has to harmonize together.......but maybe I should not use the word harmonize cause harmonics are bad by definition....
