Bullet seating? 223 cannelure 55gr sp

[Rule3]

In my .223 bolt Remington, I shoot 52g. BTHP, in the 53g. MHP, I go by what the book says for COAL, crimp and blaze away. I've used these bullets for many years. In my loads, using 3031 powder, @ 100 yards, I can shoot 5 rds. into a spot the size of my little fingernail, I don't quiz myself about "off the lands", "Is it into the lead?" If I can shoot this well at my age, I'm happy. Quit worrying about the internet BS, and all the other mambajahambo someone dreams up. Use your calipers to measure the seating depth, crimp and get on with your life.

I like it! Well said.

If your going to Camp Perry or winning Medals than maybe a different approach.
