[QUOTE="Ua26fitter, post: 1464991, member: 99506"] Rhovee, I'm playing with brass that I formed from Bertram 338 edge brass. I've used the 28 Nosler brass and had problems with it not being consistent with length and giving big swings with speed. I fire formed the Bertram brass after making it and now with the first shots I'm happier with it. I just found Bertrambrass.com and will be buying some Bertram 28 Nosler brass to use and not have to make my own. I am able to load a few more grains hotter with the Bertram brass. I realize every barrel can be different but it's strange I'm struggling to get speeds with the 215 that guys get with a 230. That's why I was kinda curious if I need to make an adjustment to my chamber/throat. Basically the Smith used a 30 Nosler reamer and just run it in a little deeper to make it the same depth as the 28 Nosler. My OAL on the 215 hybrids is 3.6 and I'd have to look and see where my lands are off that. I can't remember exactly right now. Kris [/QUOTE]
