[QUOTE="sxssixteen, post: 2478506, member: 121547"] Referring to what AZshooter explained as a method to determine OAL, I have found that his method works very well for any cartridge, in almost any rifle action. I follow his method except that I increase the internal diameter of the neck of the dummy round by a few thousandths. This still provides a slight grip on the bullet, and it allows the bullet to slide more easily into the neck when it touches the lands. I also use a black permanent marker to coat the ogive of the bullet so the marks of the lands can easily be seen. Works well and you aren't limited to which modified cartridge casings are available for the Hornady Lock-n-load system. [/QUOTE]
