[QUOTE="RockyMtnMT, post: 1315293, member: 7999"] Thank you. If it were mine I would look at changing the brake to a slab style for shooting prone in the dirt/snow. Would be nervous about changing anything though. We were using new out of the box ai brass. No brass prep, just load and go. Good concentric rifles with good bullets shoot well. Period. Chamber on this rifle is very uniform. Seal around the neck is uniform and quick. Almost no gas leak on the neck. We loaded these to seat the base of the bullet at the case/neck junction. Paid no attention to the jump. It has simply become no issue and we pay very little attention to it anymore. We usually load to the longest the mage will handle but this rifle has tons of mag room and we never reached the lands. Just loaded what made sense in the case. This 143g Hammer Hunter is a very nice proportional bullet and I most definitely my choice for this range of chambering. Steve Steve [/QUOTE]
