[QUOTE="6.5x300, post: 275932, member: 10713"] OK lights are starting to come on here for me. Some day I will build a long range 300 win mag. Of course looking at heavy pills (190,208,210 etc.) at max FPS. Lets say I seat the bullet at or in the lands, the variable becomes the OAL in reguards to the length of throat correct? A long throat on this caliber will allow room for more powder, am I on track so far? So a long barrel of 28-30" sould be able to take advantage of the extra powder and generate more FPS as compared to seating the bullet at the standard 3.34" in a standard chamber yet still in the lands? Simple ? here, will seating the bullet as long as possible allow for greater FPS and still acceptable pressure by increasing the potential powder charge? There for use a heavier load of slower powder like H1000 insted of H4831SC. Not sure it is simple but thanks for all your help in trying to shed some light in this simple mind. [/QUOTE]
