I'm loading up .357 Mag for the first time, playing around with some dummy carts to get a feel for it. I was told to get it so the mouth of the case was at the center of the cannalure when seating. When I do this I get a COL of just about 1.58." However the data states a COL of 1.61." I haven't actually tried a 1.61 COL yet (about to) but I think it might be at the very bottom of the cannalure or the cannalure might be in front of the case mouth.
So what should I try to get closest to? The manual's COL or getting the cannalure lined up?
For reference these are light target loads with Clays powder and a 158 grain SWC.
