  1. Evening everyone. I've just been seating some .25 calibre bullets for a first ever attempt. I have seated them slightly over (ie longer) than the minimum COL stated in the reloading manual. I hope this is OK? They will fit the mag but I don't know my rifles max COL. but they aren't longer than some Rem 120's and they chamber! For a min COL of 3.100 I have seated an average(!) of 3.110. For a min COL of 3.200 i have gone for 3.216. This brings me on to the second question. I have a LEE deluxe die set and these final seating depths have come largely from turning the screw adjustment by 'hours' on the clock face so to speak until I achieved a COL of as close above the minimum as I could. It seems the repeatability of seating depths is largely down to how you operate the press - or am I doing something wrong? A first incomplete cycle followed by a 180 degree rotation of the cartridge courtesy of a SPUD1967 youtube tip! Depending on how much I close the press first time tends to alter the final seat. For example of a target 3.216 it could be 3.210 to 3.223. Am I doing anything wrong and is this tolerance good enough? Thanks folks - I was warned reloading would drive me nuts....I've not started chewing the furniture quite yet! LW
