[QUOTE="Hunter 257W, post: 5033900, member: 12277"] You know I was driving to town a while ago and it came to me that I was wrong in what I told you. You are correct that when load density is discussed, 100% case capacity is the capacity when loading the specific bullet in the manual seated to the depth required to achieve the overall length listed. I'm trying to recall how they used to discuss the amount of compression years ago when a manual didn't specify the brand of bullet but only listed a weight. Maybe they didn't try to quantify how much it was compressed? I still use a lot of loads that don't show a particular bullet but only list the weight so I still think in those terms a lot of the time. [/QUOTE]
