[QUOTE="Longtooth32, post: 1445308, member: 89326"] Yes...the jump is about .3". The 270 Wby case could not even hold the 170 Berger to touch the lands. It has that much freebore. I had to measure (estimate) the jump the old way...Placed a 170 Berger into the lands...take a measurement with a rod from the muzzle, remove the bullet and then take the measurement to the base of the closed bolt. I got around 3.8" to the lands with the 170 Berger in the 270 Wby. I shoot the Bergers at about 3.54" COAL, so I believe that I am shooting with a .3" jump. [/QUOTE]
