[QUOTE="Guest, post: 53525"] halfbreed-- Get yourself a Stoney Point OAL tool and the Comparator set to go with it. The OAL makes absolutely no difference--its the ogive to lands relationship that matters. The nose length of even the finest custom bullets will vary a bit and can cause you to get inconsistencies in OAL. BUT--if your ogive/lands relationship is consistent, you are good to go. Try starting with about 88-90 gr with the WC 872 and working up in 1 gr increments. Be aware that the WC 872 is temperature sensitive and will show pressure signs in the heat of the summer.
