Thread: Howa 223 Extended Mag Follower

I only tried to get the 75s close to the lands as a reference point - they are an extreme VLD profile and are very sensitive to seating depth (in my experience). The 69 & 77 TMK, 69 Targex and 75 Gold Dot can all be seated to the lands (but don't necessarily need to) with 2.46 mag box length available as they have more conventional ogive shapes. 75 Good Dots shot best so far at 2.375 OAL and 77TMK at 2.400 - to anyone else reading this *THIS IS SAFE IN MY RIFLE AND SHOULD NOT BE TRIED UNLESS YOU HAVE MEASURED YOUR RIFLE. Despite industry standardisation there is still a lot of variation in chamber and throat dimensions.
