[QUOTE="400bull, post: 542151, member: 9065"] I am fully aware that the COAL listed in the reloading manuals and the SAAMI COAL are suggested lengths for factory rifles. I understand that when trying to achieve optimum accuracy the COAL used may not be the lengths suggested in the manual and that I will need to find out what works best in each of my rifles. What had me confused is all my other rifles I reload for including a 20 year old Win 270 I can usually find a COAL that the rifle is happy with, within +/- .030 from the COAL suggested in the reloading manuals. With my Browning X-bolt I am more than .100 from what my reloading manuals suggest and .040 from the longest I have seen listed on the internet. This just seemed extremely long for me, so I wanted to check with others to see what their thoughts where. From the sounds of it no one would worry about it and move on with load development. 400bull [/QUOTE]
