[QUOTE="timberelk, post: 1408987, member: 100952"] The nosler BT I was working up was 140 grain. My barrel is 20”. 7mm08. Powder was using varget but may switch to RL 15. Nosler box is saying 42 grains is max at 2850 FPS with a 26” barrel. I got to 40.2 last weekend. Book OAL is 2.800” I loaded to 2.885 to get .025” off the lands. Mag length is 2.995-3.000. But I picked up some Hornady 150 eld x on sale last night. Loading them to OAL to 2.885, results in about a .063” jump because the ogive is much further back vs the 140 grain nosler BT [/QUOTE]
