[QUOTE="dustybrown, post: 369188, member: 16688"] One thing I have found is that when measuring COAL (from tip to csae) the differences from one to another in the same batch of bullets changes alot too. I dont have a micrometer type bullet seater either so that may play some of the role. But If I measure from the ogive its much closer... telling me the bullets from the same box are not uniform. So when one starts playing with bullet seating to get the right device(bullet comparitor) like 6.5 said to measure with... When I started out I did not have the right stuff and it was frustrating... Ya 6.5 I should not have said most. It just seems that way for me... all of my rifles are limmited by the mag... but I use heavy bullets too... Im sure a 40 grain bullet in my .22-250 would fit fine and have some jump too. ruger 22.250 rem 7mm 700 243 mod 70 300 rum 700 all my ar-15 kimber 300 wsm 243 sako [/QUOTE]
