[QUOTE="codyadams, post: 1622978, member: 87243"] 100 fps isn't really out of the question, especially with the extremly long bullets like 150's or heavy monos. A SAAMI spec 28 nosler vs a properly throated 28 nosler will have a difference of up to 200 fps and sometimes more with 195 eol's. If you throat it, you may be limiting your bullet options slightly, however most of the lighter bullets have an ogive that aren't near as sensitive to seating depth, so a large jump doesn't really hurt. If every bullet shot poorly with a fairly large jump, Weatherby chamberings would have totally flopped. That is obviously not the case. Though I do agree, if you start with a SAAMI chamber, it will be "enough", and throating is always easy, though it will not be optimal for the longer bullets. Setting back a chamber and re-shouldering is much more work if a throat needs to be shortened. As you said, just considerations. [/QUOTE]
