[QUOTE="Nvhunter92, post: 1389465, member: 101230"] So I just picked up a Christensen arms mesa long range in 7mm rem mag, last night I was checking the rifles max coal with a 162gr Hornady ELDX to start reloading. I'm using calipers and the hornady oal gauge and bullet comparator. I ran the gauge close to 25 times and kept coming up with a max coal of around 2.267"...SAAMI max is 2.290" and that's the length that hornady uses with that bullet in their reloading manual. I have used hornady's oal gauge for several other rifles with different bullets and they have all given me a max coal greater than saami max...any suggestions as to what's going on? [/QUOTE]
