[QUOTE="Trnelson, post: 1252202, member: 42308"] RT2506 is correct. The bullets have a different nose shape. Ive seen both the 168 and 208 take deer ethically out to 680yards from my best friends 24" GAP 10. Are there other bullets that could be a viable choice, sure, but that is for another thread. He loads to 2.770" OAL with the 168 and 2.778" OAL with the 208. They feed reliably from his magpul magazines and shoot .6MOA all day every day. I don't know exactly where he is in terms of CBTO. He knows how CBTO and OAl relate in his rifle and found best accuracy with that CBTO. What I'm getting at in a rather long-winded fashion is that both of those bullets can shoot well with a jump to the rifling. So you should be able to find a CBTO that will feed through your rifle and shoot well, or you can seat them long and single feed them. It really comes down to what and where your rifle digs that bullet and what you want to deal with. [/QUOTE]
