[QUOTE="MNbogboy, post: 1698365, member: 18849"] Correct, but acronyms CBTO and BTO are referencing a certain spot (relative) on that bullet ogive. With machined bullets as yours COAL would probably work in most cases providing ogive land contact distance remained within seating node windows. Some seating node windows however often may fall in plus or minus .003 for optimum grouping. Meplat uniforming on swedged bullets and using COAL may leave something on the table unless real tight bullet sorting tolerances are used. My humble opinion. [/QUOTE]
