CHOOSE POWDER WEIGHT: The amount of powder measured in grain weight determines the velocity of your projectile. Variations in the powder charge affect accuracy. SAAMI specifications set limits on powder charges. Keep in mind, more or faster isn’t always better.

CHOOSE CARTRIDGE OVERALL LENGTH: Overall length can greatly affect accuracy and is primarily determined by the seating depth of the projectile. The throat of the barrel (the distance between the end of the chamber and the beginning of the rifling) is one factor in determining seating depth. Over time the throat of any rifle will experience wear. Decreasing seating depth which results in the bullet being closer to the lands of the rifling, even by as little as a few thousandths, can sometimes extend the life of a barrel as it wears.
