[QUOTE="freddiej, post: 1817174, member: 26227"] Bomber, of the people that responded I will agree with them. As they are correct. I am a gunsmith, I have been for the last 13 years. the more blunt your tip is the farther forward on the slug the lands and grooves will touch your slug, hence making your personal over all length shorter than SAAMI spec. VLD's will be longer and will come very close oif not over SAAMI COAL of 2.825".. For you 2.776" COAL is your absolute top length with that Nosler slug. Drop 0.010" to 0.020" from 2.776" and start load development. have a great one Y'all. [/QUOTE]
