[QUOTE="Nimrodmar10, post: 553448, member: 36369"] Tank Gothcha, finally. There shouldn't be any problem seating the bullet deeper in the case. I'm currently loading a COL of 3.665" to just barely fit into the magazine. The book list the 7 RUM max lenght as 3. 600" so I can seat it deeper. The only problem I can see is that the secant of the Berger 180 VLD is near the front of the case neck already and the base of the bullet is into the case neck so far that the boattail is already into the case below the case neck. But at this point I'll try it. I had hoped to use the 180 VLDs but I may have to back up to the 168 VLD. Berger told me that the 180 might not stabilize in the Sendereo with it's 1 in 9.5 twist. They recommend a maximun twist of 1 in 9. [/QUOTE]
