[QUOTE="AZShooter, post: 2807014, member: 5219"] Have you tried seating bullet to fit and feed from magazine? You might be surprised. For decades we older guys never knew of the obsession for seating bullets into the lands or close. Heck all the Weatherby chamberings had huge jumps but they shot accurately. We just seated the bullet to fit and feed and worked up a load. It worked till the VLD style bullet came out. Then Berger made the hybrid and seating depth again became a non issue. Lots of things to consider besides making a repeater into a single shot. Heck, I made a load for a friend's 300 WSM with the 230 Berger hybrid. Seated at 2.8" to fit his Browning A-bolt it shot bug holes and got my old friend his last elk at 300 yds. The joke was the bullet base was sitting on the flashhole. Worth a try. [/QUOTE]
