    Sometimes rifles just have a long throat and the bullet will have a long jump. You could go to a heavier and longer bullet or go all copper which are naturally longer if you want a shorter jump. I would worry about how it shots before deciding you need it needs to be seated close to the lands.
    I am reloading for two different 7x57 and one likes heavy projectiles in the 175gr range and the other prefers 139 - 150gr.
