After seating a bullet I drop cartridge down the chamber and push it in by hand and see if it will fall out turning the barrel up. If not then seat it it in a little deeper till it does.
No need to jam the bullet into the lands for accuracy.
Most bullets like a 20 thou jump.
I don't buy anything more expensive than the hornady ELDs or sierra matchkings and get half moa and sometimes a little better.
I'm not a bullet jammer :-)
I'm planning on using the 95SMK at around .020" jump. I'm also going to try some hunting (deer) and varmint (coyote) bullets. Any recommendations for either of those? I', considering the 87 vmax and the sierra 85 gameking or the new 90 "gamechanger".
