    I wouldn't bother loading longer than mag length, but that's just me. Don't be afraid to try more jump (load them shorter) the factory eldx are loaded quite short and shoot exceptionally well in every rifle I've seen them tried in.
    Load in groups of 3 and look for most consistent speed, then start messing with your seating depth.
    You can tune any load with seating depth but consistent velocity is where you will find your best load.
    Sorry if telling you how to suck eggs
