so if i read right, your seating depth is ~ ½ bullet diamater? or about .225? seems reasonable - that's enough bullet in that case to get a good grip on her
Hoot kinda thinks that way but I'll let him clarify. At the time, I was seating the bullet to make sure they fit in the magazine and passed the "Thunk" test. I also used both, the factory load OAL, and my Magtech FMJs OAL as a factor. It wasn't until several months later I got my OAL gauge so I could better measure my chamber.
