[QUOTE="HARPERC, post: 955559, member: 30671"] You guys are correct in what you're saying. My question is cruder and more from the back end. With The 168, and 185 Berger in trying to achieve just off the lands bullets are falling out of the case. Looking at the heavier Bergers, I will likely skip the 190's as from the measurements compared to the chamber I'm working with it will not be sufficiently supported by the case either. Depending on market availability I'm thinking the 230's may be what I'm looking for. Another factor in not being able to fine tune is, the current set of RCBS dies I'm using, has a seater incompatible with Berger bullets. Round to round variation from this die exceeds the tolerances you are describing. New dies, and the ability to measure from the ogive, is likely in the near future. Feenix, your initial measurements were exactly what I was looking for. The fact someone else's magazine and chamber are roughly the same as mine helped. I needed some perspective on the 0.3" before moving onto the issues of 0.003". Thanks again guys. [/QUOTE]
