[QUOTE="sfdoc2000, post: 2348775, member: 76742"] BFD is right on about the controlled feed. Here's my gripe. When trying to load Hornady 143 ELD-X in the Light hunter 6.5 Cred, where i try to seat the bullet .005 or even .010 off the lands, the cartridge is too long to fit into the magazine. So I have to seat the bullet at 2.810 COAL which puts the bullet with a jump of .025 off the lands which my rifle just doesn't like. The rifle has a 2.835 COAL to put the bullet on the lands. Too bad my rifle won't group better with that much jump. Hornady Match ammo with the 147 ELD-M seats to 2.805 COAL. Works with my magazine but not that outstanding performance. Berger 140's seated to 2.810 fit the magazine and shoot 0.75 MOA. just can't get Berger bullets now. CRY. [/QUOTE]
