    Have one in rem mag (a few years now) everything that a Finnlight is and lighter

    They all like Norma/Nosler brass

    Fed 215 primer

    72g Of ADI 2217 powder (least temp sensitive)

    And a 162 g amax at a ZCL of 2.660 inches for 3050-3080 FPS

    They have seriously consistent chambers

    Your Nosler/Norma brass will end up with a.......

    Sized neck of 303.5 inches
    Loaded neck of 308.5 inches
    Fired neck of 315.5 inches

    That’s 3.5 thou neck clearance a side which is fine with a 5 thou jump to the rifling lands

    They often shoot .3 to .5 MOA with those neck clearances in this ammo combo


    Dead deer out as far as you can see them
