[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 1052526, member: 30902"] As a rule the Berger's do not like a lot of "jump" into the riflings. You are correct that the longer bullets as a rule will be seated deeper into the case than lighter bullets of the same type. For bottom metal if you want to go with a DBM talk to PT&G or Wyatt's. Both make bottom metal and magazines long enough for the RUM cartridges and those will certainly be long enough for the STW. The followers are different though so you'll need to specify a standard belted magnum follower instead of a RUM follower to ensure best operation. [/QUOTE]
