[QUOTE="BitterrootBob, post: 720362, member: 27313"] I'm not sure if this is the right forum to post this question but here it is. Nosler has a new for 2012 .338 300 grain Accubond that is 1.750" long with a crazy ballistic coefficient of 0.750 and sectional density of 0.375. My question is could the 338 Ruger Compact Magnum be loaded with this bullet for use in a Ruger #1? I doubt it would work in any bolt action because it would have to be seated too deep. I have read Ruger #1 frequently have excessively long throats, though. I know the real answer is to use a 338 Norma or 338 Lapua but I am looking to put together a unit for mountain hunting where I would be hiking a significant distance and am not going to carry a huge rifle.
