[QUOTE="BountyHunter, post: 33224, member: 12"] Dave Kiff Pacific tools and reamers, sells a tool that allows you to lengthen your throat yourself. think it is $75. Basically it is fool proof according to him. Just make a few turns (takes out about .003-.005) and remeasure. Before you do that though, get a 210 JLK, 216 Clinch River, 210 Berger and then measure length of bearing surface with either a Buhay ogive checker or two Stoney Point comparators. You will find that there is a significant difference between the bullets. I have found that the JLK is one of the shorter. Work up loads with the shorter bullet and see what happens. For what it is worth I like the JLK and Clinch River bullets over the Berger. Found quality is more consistent and uniform in weight and length of bearing surface. BH [/QUOTE]
