[QUOTE="1shot1yote, post: 693217, member: 53661"] I came up with an OAL of 3.207 touching the lands, so that seems to be within specs. I did not size my brass before I shot it so maybe the couple extra thousandths of neck tension had something to do with it. I am using Hornady dies by the way, went with the micrometer bullet seater. Works good other than we had to chuck the seater plug in a lathe and relieve the top of the plug so the long VLD's wouldn't hit on their nose. I measured some of the resized brass and .292 seems to stick in my head. All of the reloading stuff is at my father's house. I have had my best groups with H4831sc and Remington 9 1/2's. I am going to shoot some of the resized brass tomorrow and see if there is a difference. Greyfox thanks for all the info! If I can't get this thing to shoot better it may have to go back to Savage. Thanks Justin [/QUOTE]
