7 mm STW OAL

I have a OAL gauge and for some reason all of a sudden i am getting shorter measurements with the same bullet then i orginally did. I am sure it is user error but just curious to what you guys are using for OAL on the 7 mm STW. I plan on shooting the 140 TSX..thnx

Re: 7 mm STW OAL

Are you using bullets from a new lot?

Re: 7 mm STW OAL

TTL 2.84"/MOAL 3.565" versus a Ballistic Tip, Partition, or Game King at 3.575" - you could also try 3.555", but try to stay within that .020 area. Good luck.
