I am just starting to reload for my Rem 700P in .308. Never loaded for it before. I found the OAL with my OAL gauge for 178gr. A Max's and started to load .020 shorter than the length I got with the gauge. After seating the first round, I found it won't fit in the mag at that length. Measuring from the ogive with the gauge it was 2.339 inches. After finding that it won't fit in the mag, I shortened it to 2.200 inches. Just barely fits in the mag.
Yes, it could be loaded to be shot as a single shot. But it will also see it's fair share of varmint hunting. So I want to be able to hold more then one in the gun.
I am just wondering what anyone else has seen with their 308's. Not just from Remy's, but from any other brand and any other caliber. Is this the kind of a norm?
