[QUOTE="Timber338, post: 1003831, member: 33822"] Thanks for the info. I did notice that to seat within .005" of the lands, I am only gripping to the bullet with about 1/8" of the bearing surface in the neck. And the overall length to the tip of the bullet is well over 3.9", much longer than even my extended wyatt box will accomodate at about 3.81" overall inside length. I have not done any load development yet, but it would be OK with me if I had to use these 250's in a single shot setup. I've got quite a few powders to try... Hoping to use either H1000 or RL33. I am going to do quite a bit of testing with this bullet before I am confident it will open up properly on an elk. Good to hear you had good performance on a deer and black bear. Did the bullet on the wolf just not expand as much? Sounds like you killed him, did you do any investigation in the wound channel? [/QUOTE]
