[QUOTE="meatyrem, post: 503857, member: 26633"] I measured a factory round just for comparison. 150gr scirocco seated to canulure. The factory round-----3.57" my round 150gr scirocco seated to touch the lands----4.00" a difference of .430" I tried a 140gr balistic tip, and I couldn't even come close to lands. I had measured that 150 scirocco bullet and from the base up past the to where it was seated to measured .211" and did not measure the bearing surface only. I can't say what that is, only, not much. My original thoughts for my 7rum was to push the 160 AB through it or maybe a 160 tsx? Thinking my best bet is to stick with my first thought, and go with the 160 ABs. Very green here. Don't have any experience with handloading, but am starting up. So to say the least, pretty new. [/QUOTE]
