[QUOTE="30-338, post: 399761, member: 10349"] We have loaded for a 7 RUM ( Sendero) and the closest we could seat due to mag box length and a long throat was 1/4 inch and it still shot. These were the Barnes TTSX 150"s. I don't think you could seat a bullet that far into the cartridge case to make it a problem. Start around SAAMI specs and then lengthen so it still fits in mag box and shoots accurately...Bryan did an article on the "nodes" that the Bergers will shoot well. IF I remember correctly it was touching the lands and then shorten in .040 increments all the way to .120 off the lands...I agree with BoomTube. You never know for sure that one length will always work...experiment around and you'll find the key to that rifle,powder,primer,brass,bullet combo! Good luck 30-338 [/QUOTE]
