[QUOTE="wildcat455, post: 1476974, member: 102653"] No sir. Factory Remington Sendero with untouched chamber or throat. I have close to 100 rounds through this barrel, so still pretty new. Hornady recommends an 8.5 twist for the 147 ELDM, but this rifle seems to shoot them ok. I have 2.777” Base To Lands Measurement with this bullet. COAL is 3.375” on the “touching” measurement. I measure using a fired case that has been neck sized, then the case neck cut once down to beginning of shoulder neck junction with a Dremel tool and deburred. I place the bullet in the neck and seat it in the rifle. Usually takes a couple of chamberings to get a consistent reading. The lowest consistent reading means the bullet is at the lands and not being pulled back out of the case by them. I shoot them -.010” off those measurements. [/QUOTE]
