[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 3911760, member: 15054"] That amount I have found to be in a low accuracy node and yea if you seat deep it will crush powder in say Lapua cases. I think some of my loads are 2.835" but my Savage magazine can take a very long bullet. For cases to be able to get into the higher node with IMR4064 I must use Winchester cases that are in the 150 gr area in weight. Now I also use a funnel to fill the cases and I very slowly trickle the powder into the cases and go in a circular drop around the funnel holding the pan with powder a couple inches above the funnel. This lets the long stick powder stack like cord wood. If I dump it all in quickly it will be over .080" higher in the case sometimes. So for filling all my rifle rounds I trickle into the cases. Well except for plinker .223 with ball powder. [/QUOTE]
