[QUOTE="Rimfire, post: 757637, member: 8839"] If you want to seat the bullet out were it belongs, boat tail junction at base of neck 2.9" wont get it. If you dont mind jumping them it will work. In a 6.5 -284 with a 142 sierral in a S/A rem I had to pull the bolt to get a loaded cartridge out. 142 Sierra = 1.375" 200 grain 338 NAB= 1.340" Seated where it belongs it will be over 3" A WSM case will get you another 100 thou room.
