[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 1266466, member: 2736"] Great advice and good information !!! Most big cartridges have freebore that starts above .200 thousandths so the Weatherbys are not that bad especially if you are looking for velocity. If you will notice, the dangerous game freebore is normally much more (378 460) Because of the use of round nose bullets that shorten the distance to the rifled bore. All/most others are normally around .375. I load all of my Weatherbys to mag length and have no pressure, velocity or accuracy with any of them. In fact when properly sized they are some of my most accurate rifles. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
