[QUOTE="MontanaMarine, post: 863425, member: 268"] I have to take back what i said about the 215 not being marked on seating over 49gr RL17 at 3.10". I went back and looked at the pic of the round in the linked 215 thread, and there is a slight but visible mark on the bullet from the seater. Compression didn't seem heavy though, as I recall. One thing about using moly'd bullets is that if compression is heavy, the oal will 'grow' due to the reduced friction between the bullet and case. I didn't have any of that with the 215s over 49gr. That was in fireformed and neck-sized Win brass. [/QUOTE]
