[QUOTE="1CouesHunter, post: 283061, member: 16879"] Thanks Woods, (Also Bounty Hunter & Boomtube) This Helps Me Out. I used the Hornady OAL Gage, zeroed it out and Measured the case and Bullet just barely seated and could only get a measurement of 3.579"! I Dont think the OAL Gage will go to 3.725" with a 200 grn NAB! So, Like you said, Woods, **I Believe I Mistook the Overall Measurement for an Ogive Measurement.*** I shot the Rifle with a 3.725" (tip to case Head Measurement) Shot fine out to 600 Yards!! Wouldnt the Ogive measurement be around 3.100" for a bullet and case seated 3.725 tip to case head?? Woods in that second pic, isn't the comparator sitting over the ogive of the bullet? Because when I tried to measure, the comparator was sitting on top (on the ogive of the bullet), and the lower part was exposed. Sorry for being slow on this... [/QUOTE]
