Seating depth - does it even matter?

Thanks. I think it's about the limit of my ability to shoot consistently with an 8lb rifle prone off a bipod & rear bag.

I routinely achieve this level of precision following the approach of:
1. Seat 0.050 off
2. Powder charge estimated to get the velocity level I want
3. Done

with a well-built rifle & good barrel. And good components.

Same here. But I normally do .010-.020 off
