[QUOTE="nralifer, post: 2694640, member: 94556"] If they shoot well and cycle smoothly the only thing I would worry about is how close you are that a small amount of debris could impede the bolt closing during cycling. To see that just load a dummy round with the 275 gr bullet long and keep pushing in the bullet until your bolt closes with some difficulty and then measure that OAL. Subtract from it your load AOL and that difference would be your jump. If it is 0.025” or greater you are good to go shoot some dangerous game.😉 [/QUOTE]
