I am loading the 200gr Accubonds at 3.660 for magazine length and the 230gr bergers way longer. The Bergers are 10 thou off and are definitely just single loaded.

Best accuracy typically happens when the bullet's just touching the lands; that helps center the bullet in the bore when its fired. If you're pleased with the accuracy you get, then don't change a thing; it works for you and that's what counts.

PS:

Please use lower case letters; they're much, much easier for us to read. And lots of internetters feel like someone's shouting when they use all caps in their posts. But you seem to be a nice guy so I don't think anyone thinks your shouting at us.

Sorry bout the caps lock, my mistake.

But I just love my 300 ultra, also i want to get a rem 338 ultra also. some guys bash magnums but I love them recoil is no factor I grew up shooting mag loads hunting geese with my mossberg 835 3.5 mag

I was just out with my 300 ultra tonight. I always load to mag length with it, and you can get to 3.650 or so without dragging a bullet nose.
Pitching the 225 hornady with rl50 is always an experience in a 9# lh bdl. Grouped well though.
