[QUOTE="bookworm, post: 453553, member: 13840"] Loner - saw your reply after my last post. In theory I could load almost to the lands with the 69gr smk's, but there would be barely any neck holding the bullet in...and the larger problem is the magazine size. I would like to use the magazine, which has a limit of 2.26". I knew at the outset that I would have a larger jump due to the 5.56 chamber and the magazine size. What I was not mentally prepared for is a jump of 174 thou !! I'm used to talking in single digit thou when discussing bullet jump. [/QUOTE]
