[QUOTE="Caveman0101, post: 1482173, member: 10852"] On a WBY you are never supposed to seat the bullet to the lands, this is a BIG no no. And one reason the throats on a WBY rifle are so long, unless you load them one at a time into the chamber a bullet seated out far enough to touch the lands will not fit in the mag. My 300 chamber measures 4.5" the 340 is pretty close to that. If I recall correctly WBY suggest at least .05" off the lands with the bullet. [/QUOTE]
