Measure the bullets in question, measure the bullets in the data, compare SEATING depth at OAL listed. If SEATING depth is deeper, as Rule has so wonderfully explained, reduce or use minimum loads.

It really is pretty simple to get a grasp on. I think you have it, it is just ODD to our "feed me the info and I will perform" mentality of today. When men used to do math in their heads and thought a calculator was silly. Back when folks that loaded understood what was more important, OAL or seating depth. Folks like Keith and Sharpe and ................ now, hopefully you and I.
