[QUOTE="vortech347, post: 1878465, member: 73645"] What are the specs of your rifle? Is it a custom barrel with a different free bore? How long can you load and still fit the mag? And what bullet? For example, my X bolt can feed from the mag up to 2.98 give or take a few thousandths. With the Berger 144 LRHT I would still be jumping nearly .1 to the lands. But with a 147 ELDM I can get within .02 and still fit in the mag and can just about touch the lands with a 140 eldm. Some bullets are just too long to fit to mag length with the PRC and the SAAMI freebore of .188 in a short action. [/QUOTE]
