Help with finding bullet jump

The same amount of powder with the bullet seated longer equals more space equals less pressure or at least that is how I read it.

That's only if when you seat longer you still have at least a .020 jump . Seating into the lands raises pressure far more then increasing case volume reduces pressure because you don't have that running start , the bullet is already stuck in the bore . I would much rather seat deeper into the case reducing case volume with a max charge then seating into the lands with that same max charge . I hope Unclenick comes along and helps me out cus I feel I'm not explaining it well but I strongly believe what I'm saying is accurate . :)

oh, you are explaining your point just fine. I am just pigheaded and feel the best hamburger is made from sacred cows lol.
 
that is why I love this forum. Makes me think, question my own perceptions, research and educate myself etc. I found these late last night, some may find them useful and educational

Precision Rifle Blog has a four part series of articles on bullet jump, how to find, pressures, etc
