I have a '98 sporter that was rebarreled with a new FN barrel with the typical military looong throat. Speer 130s (average of 4 groups)go into 1.089", Sierra 140s and Hornady 139s hover right around an inch, and 5 groups of Hornady 154s average 1" even.
Shew me thy ways, O LORD: teach me thy paths. "there are few better cartridges on Earth than the 7 x 57mm Mauser" "the .30 Springfield is light, accurate, penetrating, and has surprising stopping power"
