[QUOTE="BB401, post: 1334807, member: 97966"] Correct.. I understand the 3.277 isn't my COAL, just the max on the chamber. My point is this.. that even if I took the 300 Berger and used all of the 0.165" Lead (touching the lands) then add the nose, 0.945" I would still come up short @ 3.965". So if and when I load them there is just as much, 0.955+" inside the case. To me that seems excessive, especially when it begins compressing what I would call normal powder charges. Am I wrong in thinking that the Lead area should be a good bit longer...0.050"-0.125" to accommodate these? [/QUOTE]
