In my Swifts, I can reach the rifling with a 50 grain V or BK..

But both are rebarrel jobs..


Yes it does seem long, but Remmys haven't been known for Min tolerance chambers as of late.
The OP stated as new, so wondering if it wasn't bought used and has been partially throated. Most people who buy Swifts haven't been known to keep the speed limit down, and it doesn't take a lot of max load rounds and 4000 fps to throat em a little.
But even if it is throated by going back to max length with a light bullet it should still go under 1.5 with H-380 or AA2700.
If its been back to the factory, it is surprising a bore scoping wasn't requested.
