[QUOTE="Greyfox, post: 771994, member: 10291"] I have thought a lot about this as well since I target shoot with Sierra SMKs, and hunt with the Berger VLD's. I shoot a Rem Milpec 300 WM that groups both SMK 175 and 200's into .25MOA with good velocity and ES. It does the same with Berger210's and 190's. I shoot the SMK's .100" off the lands and Bergers .010" for these results. All my loads fit in a standard magazine with room to spare. Here are the measurements to the lands using both a collimator that measure from the ogive, and the COAL. Bullet. Collimator COAL 175 SMK. 3.840". 3.510" 200 SMK. 3.840". 3.521" 190 VLD. 3.836" 3.574" 210 VLD. 3.837". 3.576" With the amount of shooting I do will also get a back up barrel lined up. I will most likely go with the same throat that I have in my rifle, but increase my length from 24" to 26" for the extra velocity. [/QUOTE]
