...I tend to prefer semi versions of military style platforms over the years, pretty much down to AR platforms only now, 15's and 10's. For any bullet I might use, I start at the max allowable COAL by the magazine internal limitation. I'll start at .010-.020 off toouch point to find the particular bullet/powder in use to determine charge weight then adjusting seating depth modification backwards (if necessary). I don't ascribe to "chasing the lands" philosophy, never have in my shooting/loading endeavor over the years, primarily due my exclusive use of mag fed semis. Bullet technology has advanced to the point that greater flexibility in how close/far one seats to the lands is less restrictive than in the past, especially for AR platforms.
