[QUOTE="Roughwater, post: 689106, member: 33915"] Rich, That may seem like a lot of jump but it's also a very long bullet. I have loaded these from touching out to .140 from the lands and this is what the gun seems to like best. Keep in mind this is .095 not .95 from the lands so is Less than a tenth of an inch from the lands and again on these long bullets that's not a lot of jump considering. Also the Ruger's not quite as bad as the Remington's but has a very deep throat. From my little expierence, it appears Rifles with the longer throats seem not to need the bullets touching the lands and in some cases you can't touch the lands even if you wanted to. You always want to have the bullet set into the case at least one caliber's width deep. With a Rem 700, 30-06 I have it's impossible to both touch the lands and satisfy that one caliber's width into the case rule with most bullets. Terry [/QUOTE]
