Loading some 140gr Bergers in my .270 pics.

I found the seating depth of where it touches the riflings.
this is how much of the boolit is in the casing..




Berger reccomends that the bullet engage the riflings, so im goin to seat it a lil less deeper, prolly about .0015 less.

That looks like its cutting it close huh?
