I absolutely cannot figure out how to make my bullets fit in my 30-06 case. The manual I have states that for 180gr bullets in a 30-06 there should be 54.0-56.2gr of my powder (IMR4350). However, anything above the absolute minimum powder charge won't allow my bullets (Hornady 180gr SSTs) to seat deep enough to allow them to be crimped, making them loose inside the case. I'd thought I could adjust the bullet seater to make them seat deeper but that wasn't the case, and I thought maybe tapping the bullets lightly on the table would settle the powder enough to make them fit. Still no luck. Has anyone come across this before, and how did you fix it?
