[QUOTE="redneckclimbing, post: 1533914, member: 41124"] WildRose, just looking at the SAAMI specs for the Wby. chambers, which part are you talking about the leade or the throat itself? I noticed that the Wby. specs actually call for a tighter throat then almost all other cartridges (usually .0004" over bullet diameter vs. at least .0005" over). I personally have only worked up loads for two .300 Wbys. so I can't say I have any real experience with them. However, with the even tighter neck, a VLD with a long bearing surface like the 195 or a tangent ogived bullet with a long bearing surface like the 160 AB should, in theory, shoot even better compared to other cartridges, if you seat that bullet out longer giving it a chance to center in the leade. How have yours done with long VLD's seated with say only one caliber of bearing surface in the neck? Just curious, thanks. [/QUOTE]
