[QUOTE="MagnumManiac, post: 3076438, member: 10755"] OK, I finally got around to doing some measurements and taking some photos. The round on the left is the 142g seated with the heal below the neck, and the round on the right is the 150g with the heal just below the neck, both will be .010" just off touching when assembled to shoot. The 142g is 3.457" touching (COAL) and the 150g is 3.465" touching. Not a great deal of difference and the throat also suits the Berger 156g perfectly within these parameters. Now, many might question what advantage there is between the 142 & 150 in terms of performance. Even though a small amount, the higher BC should buck wind better and this was the goal from the start. A BC difference from (G7) .316 to .319 is no great amount, but it will make a difference. Cheers. [/QUOTE]
