[QUOTE="RT2506, post: 323840, member: 10178"] Sounds like COAL too long. I had this happen once to me a long time ago. I was loading the bullet to almost touch the lands and when I got different lot number of bullets the o-give was a touch longer or the bullet point was a little shorter and I was using a base of case to bullet tip measurement and it caused the bullet to stick in the bore when I went to unload my rifle while climbing out of a tree stand. I did not have a cleaning rod with me and had to drive a 60 mile round trip to get one and then back to hunt in the afternoon. I now never load my hunting ammo close to the lands. I find the best accuracy I can at least five thousands off the lands or further just to be safe. I mostly use Sierra or Nosler BT or AB bullets and they usually shoot best with some jump. [/QUOTE]
