[QUOTE="splattermatic, post: 204455, member: 6781"] the build is beginning ! i want to shoot berger 140 gr. vld's in my newest build of a 6.5-06. never have used bergers before, but the instructions say to seat them out to just touching the lands. to maximize case capicity, i'd like to seat the bullets to where they are just to the end of the neck. this would give me say an overall length of such n such, or at mag length, if too long for the mag well, which ever is longest. given this oal, i will make up dummy shells to send off with the build. should i get the throat set where it would be touching the bullets at this oal ? or ?. if longer then i could possible not be able to use the mag, ie single load, or i could always shorten up the oal and still mag feed. guess the question should be, do berger vld's shoot well touching ?
