[QUOTE="robpiat, post: 1692049, member: 17931"] As I said above, My Hornady 140s are 2.925 in a tikka which is .020 off the lands. Longer oal, more powder, lower pressure. You have to look a carefully at bullet shape and find one suited for a long chamber. The Hornadys for iinstance are better than a similar weight SMK which is more secant ogive (longer,pointier) I currently have a 22 cal barrel that was engineered around SMK and won't work well with Berger/Hornady shaped bullets.
