[QUOTE="Greyfox, post: 1334810, member: 10291"] I start with my desired bullet style and weight for the cartridge, generally a .29-.32 G7 BC, heavy for caliber, boat tail style (ex. 140gr 6.5, 210gr 30 cal). I will throat so the seated bullet will be .010"-.020" from touching the lands when the jumction of the bullet body(caliber),and boat tail of the bullet is at the base of the case neck. This dimension assumes the bullet will fit in the rifles magazine. It also provides for maximum powder capacity and some room to chase the lands if necessary. [/QUOTE]
