[QUOTE="Browninglover1, post: 522806, member: 29966"] There is an even simpler (in my opinion) method to finding the length to the lands by using a shell you've fired in your gun, the bullet you want to load, and a magic marker. The process is described in the Nosler reloading manual and helped me create some very accurate loads when I first started reloading before I had any other tools. I have an Xbolt in 300 WSM and found the Bergers shot awesome in my gun with anywhere from 0.000-0.025" jump but if I get to 0.030" my groups go from less than 3/4 moa to over 1.5 moa. Also my bullets were a little to long to fit in my magazine but I used a dremel and a file to remove some material from the front of the magazine and now they fit just fine. If your XBolt is like all the ones I've shot it'll surprise the hell out of you how accurate it is for a light factory rifle. [/QUOTE]
