I'm loading some Nosler Ballistic Tip (Spitzer) 150 grain 30-06. (Starting load 55 grains IMR 4350.)
Nosler's website suggest 3.320 inches overall cartridge length for that bullet.
I've got some factory Remington 150 grain 30-06 PSP. They measure 3.1655 inches.
I have an Alliant manual that doesn't give data for Nosler 150 grain, but has the Hornady 150 grain Spire Point (that's Spitzer, right?) as 3.210 inches.
I have three 30-06 rifles. This is for a 2002 Remington 700 Mountain Rifle, and I've read that the bullet contacting the lands could create excessive pressures.
