[QUOTE="MagnumManiac, post: 1393552, member: 10755"] I have had 3 Win Model 70 rifles chambered in 338WM, NOT ONE had the same throat length as each other. My newest purchase, a FN/Herstel made Extreme Weather has the shortest throat of all 3, a 250gr Partition has to be seated so short it looks silly sitting in the case. All 3 have had to have a re-work in regard to loads as pressure in my pressure trace II showed significant increases with the shorter seating depths. Each rifle has had a shorter throat than the previous one. I am going to have this rifle re-throated to the same length as my previous rifle so hopefully I can run similar loads. At least my old brass still chambered, there is only .002” between the 3 in head to shoulder dimension, which is a win/win. Cheers. ;) [/QUOTE]
