[QUOTE="dok7mm, post: 1539551, member: 90080"] Sounds pretty much like you are jamming the bullet into the lands. If you have a magnifier, examine the ogive for marks. You can also coat the ogive area with a magic marker to see it better. If so, seat your bullet deeper in case until it doesn't leave any mark. Depending on your rifle's freebore, the 175 may be too long, without seating into your powder space. Google Alex Wheelers method for finding your touch length for different bullets. [/QUOTE]
