Can you hang some paper closer, see when the bullet starts to tip ?

I can't test seating depths as well as I have still been unable to contact Russ Weber.  


How long have you been trying?


Not a very long time.  I've sent a couple of emails over the last six weeks.  The funny thing with emails is that you never know when they get stuck in someone's spam filter.

My local range won't let me hang anything closer and my 200 yard range is going to be pretty much snowed in before I'd have a chance to get there.   

I can say that in this particular rifle, there is less tipping with a case full of Swiss 1.5, so I imagine the velocity is probably pretty low.  Once the torrential rain stops ( may or June Wink,  I'll get the chronograph out.

I get stuff from Pat and Dave Purcell frequently.  I'll see if I can raise them.  I don't remember how long it has been, but now in the last week or so.  Bob
