I thought so too. The 180 SP's have a cannelure, and I have seated until the cannelure is completely covered up. I usually seat until I just barely still see the top of the cannelure. I didn't crimp, and I think I can go just a tad further in. I'll seat some 150 SPs too and see how that feeds. I also think I'm gonna take you up on the idea of putting the ladder back in the white.
I'll shoot it on Monday - was going to go to Quantico today to get it on paper, but rain in the forecast means yard gets mowed first. Then, I think its about time lots of pictures and a range report! Those 220 RN's are in the mail mon. or tues.
