Your true seating depth is determined by measuring from the ogive of the bullet. You can determine the max COAL in your rifle using the dowel rod method...or a hornady OAL gauge (flimsy and overpriced for a little more precision). From that you'll find that the throat of your rifle is going to allow a COAL with what bullet you're using which exceeds the magazine allowance of your rifle.
Snake, What's this (the bolded part about the dowel rod method)?
"Why "zombies"? Because calling it 'training to stop a rioting, starving, panicking, desperate mob after a complete governmental financial collapse apocalypse' is just too wordy." or in light of current events: training to stop a rioting, looting, molotov cocktail throwing, skinny jeans wearing, uneducated bunch of lemmings duped by, or working directly for, a marxist organization attempting to tear down America while hiding behind a race-based name
