[QUOTE="Greyfox, post: 617653, member: 10291"] The throat on my Savage LRH in 6.5x284 is set up so that the COAL of a loaded round using Lapua brass and a Berger 140 Hunting VLD is 3.19" when touching the lands. I'd send one set up like this and tell your smith that at this length you should abe touching the land. This set up enables me to load 59 gr of Retumbo and get velocities over 3000FPS. My loaded rounds in the Savage are seated .075" out of the lands giving a COAL of 3.11" for best accuracy. My Cooper is set up just about the same and gives the same results. [/QUOTE]
