5)140 gr vldh, .001 off lands

I bought this gun from a member and he had worked up load before I bought gun. It's lights out.
 
I have been looking at everyone's load data and I have noticed most of the people are seating the bullets off the lands in the hundredths (.010 to .020). I was curious as to why? I have always set mine no more than .002 of the lands and sometimes in to a slight jam. Would a large jump on the 140s be beneficial for some reason. Thanks in advance for you replies.
