[QUOTE="ILVTOHT, post: 1820356, member: 112945"] I’m seating at 3.380 AOL. Which is maximum magazine length. It is a long jump from the lands... .180 off. I Can’t seat them long enough to reach the lands! I’m working on a load with 129 grain accubond LongRanges and reloader 26 right now. I did a ladder test with 2 rounds each started at 59 up to 61gr. .5 grain steps. Ran into pressure at 61... so I’ve got a 3 round/ group loaded up for more testing starting at 60.2 - 60.8 .2 grain steps... My Hornady fireformed cases hold 74.1 grains of water, the Norma 73.7 grains of water... but when I resize with the Redding 6.5-06 ackley dies to just bum the shoulder... it squeezed the cases quitso I’m thinking my chambering is closer to a 6.5 Sherman... The velocity i posted for my fireform load was wrong... 58.5 of h-1000 gives me 2917fps not 2870... [/QUOTE]
