QL default lists the bullet as having a 1.14" oal length, but my experience with 170 grain flatpoints is that they are closer to .995". I've just never had Speer 170s. If they are more in line with the Hornady 170 FP, I may buy some. Hornady chose to "suspend" production of that fine bullet, so I'm looking at alternatives.
