Update on breech seated bullets

I was having some trouble getting my Hoch 32-40 bullets to breech seat smoothly and they were not engraving to the base band . I wanted to update that I made a new plugged case and extended the breech seater out to between 5/32 "- 3/16 " and something magical happened  ! I'am now getting rifling engraving down to the base band and the accuracy is much improved . There is enough cam action force with the CPA rifle to smoothly push the bullet in with minimal effort . I think it was just the long throat . Yes the distance is a little more between the end of the case and the bullet , but no bomb so far with 14.2 grs. of IMR 4227 .I know there will be folks who are worried about that . Thanks for all the help .
