If it's all original, you'll likely be seating the 300 gr bullet to an overal length of 2.6.
There is some data in an old Ideal reloading manual I have for 405 gr bullets, but with the 1-32 twist common in those rifles whether or not that 405 gr bullet will stabilize is anybodies guess.


the most expensive bullet there is isn't worth a plug nickel if it don't go where its supposed to.
