[QUOTE="el matador, post: 1036632, member: 12193"] I'm going to try these in my 338-378. My question for all of you experts is about the seating depth as it relates to the very long nose of these bullets. The Berger manual says 3.750" OAL and every load I can find on the forums has a similar length, mostly 3.760-3.800". Well the case length is 2.913" and the nose of the bullet is 1.000". This means that if I seat to the recommended length my ogive will be over .100" down inside the neck. I've never seated that deep and it seems strange. I'm probably just going to single feed these so mag fitment won't be an issue. [/QUOTE]
