GOOD call to skirt the Imaginary rifle(s) "particulars",it wasn't going to be pretty...............(hint) Brad says: "Can't fault Rick for his pity letting you back on the fire... but pity it was and remains.

Might haul it up this year after Muley if I don't go caveman on them with the .44 mag.... Now I just got to find some unsuspecting soul to dump all my other .308 bullets on.... It ain't what you don't know that makes you an idiot...it's what you know for certain, that just ain't so... Most people don't want to believe the truth~they want the truth to be what they believe. Stupidity has no average...

Trust them.....they work better than good. How easy is it to get them to shoot well? My 30-06 has a very, very long throat, so in order to keep bullets in cases, they'll have to be off the lands. How would you recommend I go about figuring a seating depth? I usually start about as far out as I can get and go deeper. I appreciate any advice you can offer. If I can shoot them accurately at or above 3k, they will shoot pretty flat. I'm always willing to try bullets that cost less than 50 cents apiece! I belong on eroding granite, among the pines.

In my rig, the 155s shoot a hair better when about .020" off the lands than when slightly into the lands, but the difference is minimal.

So, you want me to describe my current .308 set-up, and you've already asked 3 times, do I have that right? Just want to make sure I answer your question correctly, this is important stuff.
