[QUOTE="StumpyJohnson, post: 2816238, member: 122458"] This I agree with this, I calc from the ogive back to the base and then ensure the bullet seats like you describe. Which is why I want/hope/feel a long action is at least a viable option for a few of these cases. Am I totally wrong? I know freebore becomes the limiting factor but that can be addressed in chambering. I mean, a long action starts at the 2.8ish mark right? The ONLY reason I'm considering creedmoor is the thought that it'll feed well in a LA. I want to transform the Zeus action I have to shoot a 6mm cartridge that's efficient with powder, uses a SRP (availability reasons), bangs steel out to 1k and takes small/medium game to 300. Tell me why those expectations CANT be shouldered by the 6xc sir. [/QUOTE]
