[QUOTE="J E Custom, post: 769950, member: 2736"] That is correct. Different bullet shapes loaded to the same ojive length (Land diameter of a .308 will be .300 and bore dia will be .308.) use a .300 bushing and measure to the back of the case for the correct dimension. Cartrige overall lengths will vary depending on the bullet type used, But the ojive length needs to remain the same to maintain bullet to land clearance. CAUTION; Bullet seating dies will engauge different bullets at different points and may change ojive lengths so when changing bullet styles you have to check the ojive to case head length to maintain proper bullet to land clearance. I hope that cleared it up for you. J E CUSTOM [/QUOTE]
