I read that article and had a M70 throated for 160/175 partitions.
Something to consider today is that VLD bullets have a lot more boattail and they are sleeker--the ogive is set back further--thus, they seat deeper in the case. Long-throating can become more of an issue to favoring particular bullets than it already was.
Another consideration is the Nosler case. I weighed the water capacity of my fired 280AI (nosler) to the mouth - 75.1g. Have had several variations of AI over the years and more AI rifles than is reasonable. The new Nosler case has more capacity. I was supposed to be leaving to go North when sidetracked with this and I did a quick weigh on a standard 280 Remington case at 68.3--a guy should compare the Nosler standard case.
