[QUOTE="longrangehunterII, post: 1364697, member: 61185"] Mark- I'd start at the lands and work up w/H4350 while fire forming your barss to see where your max is, and back away. After which the FF brass will take .02 more grains IMO, but you'll know your max with that bullet. The Hybrid doesn't have a long bearing surface, but I haven't used them much since they were too long in my 260 Rem so I never used them in that gun. They however will work well in the Creedmoor, just back away in .005" measurements and see what works. Once you're close go out further shooting them i.e. with your ladder test and see what happens. After the first 100 or so rounds are down the barrel you'll pick up even more in velocity and you'll have a better Idea of what the gun is really doing. Good Luck, and Oh, BTW, GAP tends to cut their chambers long like that FWTW, but I'd assume you're still fine w/mag box length. [/QUOTE]
