Re: COL make a difference?

Palmer

I tend to disagree - I have a couple of Double rifles that shot well withn acceptable
expectations. Once I had them shooting, I decided to play around with the Bullet seating
depth that of course affects the COL.

I found that I could improve the accuracy even more of some of the Double Rifles.

I think from talking to others that it has to do with BARREL TIME, the amount of time
the bullet spends in the barrel which with a double rifle has a direct bearing on the regulation
and therefore accuracy.

Also, re crimping, I generally DON'T Crimp ammo, I just make sure that when I resize
the necks of cases that it does so in a way that leaves the bullets tight enough to hold well
without crimping.

Only very occasionaly have I had the bullet push into the case and it often tunred out
to be a case on the verge of throwing out due to too many reloads and thin neck brass.

Hope this helps. What I have found is not necessarily gospel and varies from person
to person.
