I honestly couldn't tell you how far off I am. The smith suggested I start at 3.335" and thats what I did. I would guess thats a pretty decent jump as I still have aaallllooootttttt of room to start stretching the bullet out.

I've done a little more testing.

The 175 lrab averages 3050 @ 82 grains of us 869, retumbo.is right about the same speed 3030 iirc at 72 grains. The lands are at 3.445", last range trip showed the rifle likes a jump with the best group of the day being about .8" @ 3.385".
