New gun, Weatherby Vanguard Wilderness .30-06. During my first phase of load development, I'll use Hornady gauges to allow me to read to the bullet's ogive and measure COAL when it touches the lands. With this particular caliber, should I then set my bullet seating depth Thirty one thousandths back off the lands for starters? Obviously I'll test lots more, but is this a common starting depth?
My first test load sequence will be with Nosler Accubond 165 or Hornady Interbond 165. I realize to take a dummy loaded round to the depth I will use and make sure it will chamber as well as fit in the magazine w/o the tip hitting.
Thanks!
