[QUOTE="ShtrRdy, post: 1501751, member: 40852"] I got that number by looking at the SAAMI drawing and the Berger "quick reference" chart. The Berger numbers for the 6mm, 105 gr Hybrid are: Length = 1.256" Nose = 0.701" Bearing Surface = 0.342" Boat Tail = 0.213" I marked up the SAAMI drawing with your COAL number of 2.858" and what the bullet would take up. ( see attached picture ) Taking the bullet length of 1.255" minus the boat tail of 0.213" gives 1.043". Subtracting the 1.043" from your COAL of 2.858" gives 1.815". The maximum case length is 1.920". So subtracting 1.815" from 1.920" gives 0.105". 0.105" of Bearing Surface in the Neck doesn't seem like enough. [ATTACH]109201[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
