[QUOTE="Hogcrusher1965, post: 770706, member: 65105"] AZ shooter I have a 7mm-08 in short action and Ive tried seating the bullets for accuracy where they are needed and I was too long for the magazine. Others have said use the Wyatt box but I don't wanna mess with the current rifle SA in 7mm-08. I like the rifle as is. I tried the 140 AB's and the 120 BT's and where they need to be seated is too long for the current mag in the SA 7mm-08. I have dime groups on both all day long at 100 yards but when I seat out closer to the lands the groups drop to half that but they are too long for the mag because of the tips. I want the best accuracy I can get. Yes the groups are sufficient for hunting but not as good as the rifle can be. If I go to an AI and use some the longer VLD hunting bullets which I like alot then I have the length issue. I seat the Bergers almost dead on the lands. Yes there are alot of LA action choices out there but nothing grabs me like the 7mm-08AI. Id be open to suggestions on other choices and why. I already have 25-06AI and 280AI. [/QUOTE]
