I am working up some starting loads for a .25-06 using 100gr TTSX and 115gr TSX Barnes behind H4831.

I notice that the Barnes literature shows deeper bullet seating than most other manufactures of same weight projectiles (3.080 compared to 3.155).

Does anyone know why they recommend this? Do Barnes typically shoot better with a longer jump?
