Don't want it too light as I suspect with the powder charge these carry, it may have some substantial recoil.

And, oh yeah, throated for the Nosler 129 grain ABLR, so I can use the 140's also, by seating them just a tad deeper and still use the lighter varmint bullets for extreme varminting at long range.

sounds like an awesome build Bob.

Of the 129 and 140, which has a longer ogive?

The 129gr ABLR's are long! It's been a while since I measured, but I remember them giving me a longer COAL than the 140 VLD's when seated to the lands in my son's 260.
