How's your rifle throated ?
Good luck.
I can't remember off hand because I'm also working with a custom 284 W and I get them confused -- at times like this.
Just getting started w/120s I simply set COAL with the Factory ammo. I've had WW 140 PP that were very accurate so
>>>I'm using 3.150 for now.>>>
I have checked distance to lands but simply don't remember right now.
Thnx

CORRECTION--- CORRECTION
The factory COAL is 2.940 NOT 3.150 sorry!
I said I was going from memory, so...
Today I set the COAL for 120 NBT at 3.000". These 120 NBTs are much slimmer nosed. The secant ogive is 'shallower', more streamlined.
Also I turned a 140 sp upside down and closed the bolt. The distance to lands is 2.715--base of bullet. This Win 70 is not xtra long throated. I'm glad.
Today I prepped cases and loaded IMR 4350 for testing. I am trying IMR because I have it before buying H.
Thnx
