Gene, do you get a sense that by doing so you have a bit less sharp recoil, or less tendency for the rifle to torque in the front rest ? Would you expect less amplitude in the initial pressure spike ?
I don't see how a change in seating depth could affect recoil or torque in the front rest.
Amplitude in the initial pressure spike? I don't know. I have no test equipment that would let me experiment with that.
