Default Bullet Seating Length for .243 w/70gr. Sierra Blitz Kings

I have received advice from a few of you guys on working-up a load for my Savage Mod. 11 .243. I got new Win. cases; 70 gr. Sierra Blitz King bullets and am going to start out w/ IMR 4350 power + CCI 200 primers.

I will be neck sizing only and would like to hear some reccomended overall length ie, bullet seating lengths for the Savage. I realize every action/gun is different but a starting point would be helful. Also if anyone can re-post some reccomended power charges it would be great because my Speer Manual No 9 only has charges listed for 75 gr. and higher bullet weights.

Not sure if you guys like this power for this load, but I need to fire-form the cases anyway. Also, I could use the same info for Sierra 100gr. Game King loads - same gun.

Thanks,

dr
