RE: bullet seating pressure??
jerseyboy said it well.Tapping,tamping,rapping the ram rod on top of bullet is a NO-NO.The only thing it does is deform bullet.If your using powder,lightly tap the butt of gun on ground 2-3 times to settle powder.Push the bullet FIRMLY onto powder charge using exactly the same pressure every time you load.
If your groups at range don't improve I'll buy you somthin nice.
