[QUOTE="Clayne B, post: 810106, member: 38898"] I have pretty much decided I would like to shoot 155 SMK Palma Or 168 Berger VLD's I have loaded both, and can not get the accuracy I want when seated to fit in my mag. Rifle is a Remington 700 SPS Varmint in .308 with a 26 inch barrel Thinking of rechambering it with a 2011 PALMA reamer. Here are some numbers for the nuts that under stand it. [B]168gr Berger VLD[/B] Loaded to fit the mag 2.170 to the ogive 2.860 over all to the tip Measured my chamber with hornady tools 2.350 to the ogive 3.041 over all to the tip [B]155 Palma #2156[/B] Loaded to fit the mag 2.183 to the ogive 2.845 to the tip Measured my chamber with hornady tools 2.403 to the ogive 3.062 over all to the tip Here are the specs on the reamer. forum.accurateshooter.com/index.php?action=dlattach;topic=3751116.0;attach=866923 Any thoughts or input?
