[QUOTE="Moman, post: 369824, member: 10494"] Assuming you are using a 150 Accubond, which measures 1.230 in length. If you were to seat this in your 2.005 trimmed case, at the OAL of 2.910, you would have .905 of bullet mass outside of your case, with .325 of bullet shank inside your case. It sounds like you have a bit of freebore in your setup. Not a real big deal though. I would seat the bullet a little deeper regardless of what your magazine length is. Try seating so that the junture of the shank and boat tail are lined up with the juncture of the neck and shoulder of your case and see what OAL this gives you. By the way, welcome to LRH. [/QUOTE]
