Home Forums Reloading Big Game Rifles Seating lenght for 22-250 Remington 700 Varmint special

Just wondering what your rifle likes as an OAL for 55's ?

I tried the standard 2.350 and it doesnt' to like it. Im going to seat further out...just wondering where you guys are at ?

cheers,

I do load testing of all my rifles with bullets seated .010 off the lands. That's the seating depth that worked very well when I shot benchrest in the 1970's. I still get good results w/bullets so seated.
If the magazine won't accept that seating, I go with the mag length, but after I've found a load with bullets seated long.
