[QUOTE="catamountsierra, post: 1497669, member: 79865"] I did a bunch of measuring on both the bullets and the brass. That isn't as good as measuring loaded rounds, but does give me fair numbers. From those measurements, setting the ogive at the case mouth gives me a C.O.A.L. of 2.846" with the ELDX and 2.844" with the ABLR; those should fit in the Wyatt mag box and I think represent my worst-case scenario. Checking out the reamers was something I hadn't thought about; I had been thinking of making up a couple dummy rounds and getting the smith's advice on the reamer and throat specs. [/QUOTE]
