Reloader308
Inactive
Hi, new to the forum. I have a Savage model 12BVSS in .308 and starting to reload. I purchased a Hornady OAL gave to determine the distance to the start of the rifling. I came up with 2.805 to 2.810. Will this vary a bit from rifle to rifle? I had purchased a box of federal sierra 175 match king and the OAL is running at 2.800. I contacted Savage to see how much more room there wa before I contacted the start of the rifling and they would not provide this information. I have been loading to 2.775 to start with min. Powder loads to start. Any advice would be appreciated.
