6 BR and seating depth

I'm new to this caliber and need some help. Ive been trying varget and 105 Amax but haven't been happy with accuracy. I did find a load that had almost no velocity change for 5 shots. Chronograpy just said duplicate. But it wasn't accurate around 1" @ 100 yards. Should stay there and play with seating? What are we looking for in load test?? Accuracy or Low ES?? Then play with seating???
 
I tried some 95 bergers but only one sring of 5 One high two groups of 2 both touching and about 1" apart. I'm getting ready to do a ladder with the 95's and see what happens 29-30-31 grains of varget CCI primers Lapua brass. It could be me??? So I'll retest and see if I see any paterns?
 
Those bullets are optimized for a 1:9 twist, but should work with most 1:8.

Try jamming them and work up to 20 thou in the lands. If that fails, go Berger... I have had barrels that worked well with Amax, but I have frankly given up on them because I haven't had good results with the Gaillard barrels I have currently.
