Experts-
I've been seating my 308 bullets (175 SMK) to 2.80 because I can't go any longer with my blind magazine. I've been measuring the cartridge from the bullet tip to the end of the case and noticed that there is quite a bit of variance from bullet to bullet. Should I just trust my seating die and stop checking the COAL or should I fiddle with each round until I get it right at 2.80?
Thanks!
