I am very dissapointed with Berger bullets regarding the 338 hybrid bullet.

[QUOTE="Oliveralan, post: 402373, member: 20245"] Very interesting thread. I agree that in theory decreasing internal volume (decreasing COAL) would increase in-case pressure. Seating a bullet out (increasing COAL) would decrease the initial in-case pressure. But if you seat your bullet out enough and into the lands, pressure once again spikes, as more needs to build up to push the bullet out directly into the lands. So after saying all this. If it is really the pressure spike causing the nose slump, a long throated barrel with a bullet seated way out to maximize case volume, and then using more, slower than normal (for that case/bullet combo) powder should allow you to shoot it faster while staying under the pressure ceiling.
