    Yes @dogmatix whats with that? Most 300WMs have a long throat for big bullets.

    Seated to fit a mates Sako A7 magazine. He wanted mag fit, not single feed.
    I was shocked at how short the internal length of the A7 mag is. Even factory ammo was touching the front.

    180SSTs, as more pointy AMaxes had to be seated in further.
    Only FC brass, but it's all annealed each firing, primer pocket uniformed and flash hope deburred.
    CCI mag primers.
    Just using ADI 2217.
    Brass is redding body and lee neck sized, kept it simple.
    Welcome to Sako club.

    Cool will tweak it using 2225. Of course my issue is the bulk of the powder being seated so deep.
    I did suggest single feed, but he wants magazine length.
    Gibo and stub like this.

    Tell him he can have both.
    I have two loads. One mag length for <300m and one single feed for >300m. I have never found that I don't have time to chamber a single feed round if I see something at a distance.

    Experience. What you get just after you needed it.
