[QUOTE="jimbires, post: 513375, member: 11011"] factory ammo is built to SAAMI specs .factory firearms are chambered to SAAMI specs . SAAMI specs ammo will fit anything chambered in that cartridge . this is where handloading comes into play . a handloader custom builds his ammo to work best in his rifle . if your rifle shoots best with a .020 bullet jump then by all means load to that spec . being this ammo will only ever be fired in your rifle it is perfectly safe . just be careful if you have a load on the hot side and start working the bullet closer to the rifling . it can or will increase your pressure as you get close or jammed . so back off the powder a little seat the bullet longer and work the powder back up . a lot of guys start working up loads with the bullet jammed then work their way to jumping . Jim do you know how to find the max COAL for your rifle ? [/QUOTE]
