[QUOTE="statjunk, post: 382419, member: 18873"] I worked up some dummy loads. The bullet is a Nosler Accubond 180gr. The longer bullet is the theoretical maximum length. Essentially .308" buried in the case. The shorter bullet is the theoretical minimum length. It's loaded to fit a standard long action magazine well of 3.40 and is loaded to a max length of 3.385. Both bullets have the ogive marked. If both bullets were placed on a flat level surface the distance between the two ogive marks is the amount of throat play I have to work with. I attached some pictures so folks could see what I'm talking about. Anyone care to provide a reasoning as to where I should set the OAL with respect to ogive? Thanks Tom [url]http://i213.photobucket.com/albums/cc318/statjunk/Knight%20Master%20Hunter%20II/IMGP0735.jpg[/url] [url]http://i213.photobucket.com/albums/cc318/statjunk/Knight%20Master%20Hunter%20II/UpClose.jpg[/url] [/QUOTE]
