    Calibre was 7.08 / projectile hornday sst (sorry forgot to mention) I think will just seat the bullets to work with the mag as suggested and go from there. It doesn't shoot badly now with fed blue.

    Dogmatix, thanks thats good to know for any future purchases

    Let us know how it goes, I have always thought that at least not trying them to mag length could be a case of trying to fix something that isn't broke.
