What is your cartridge overall length with your BHW barrel in .264lbc with 123gr AMaxes? playing with mine still trying to find the sweet spot.

What is your cartridge overall length with your BHW barrel in .264lbc with 123gr AMaxes? playing with mine still trying to find the sweet spot. Ritch is shooting the Noslers just shy of 2.300. You should get a distance to lands on any bullet you use as the chambers AND BULLETS can vary. The chambers are very close but an OLD box of my bullets was 0.020 LONGER than the new box of bullets. Th ogive placement on a given bullet can really cause variation in OAL vs distance to the lands. I don't either of us have shot the AMAX because we got such a good deal on the Nosler CC's. We are bothe using the Sinclair Tool and finding our numbers are within about 0.002- 0.004 of each other depending on the bullet we are measuring with. Greg

I just spent 20 minutes with Ritch on the phone about your question and he had his Sinclair stuff handy.
COL for distance to lands:
Hornady 123 AMAX: 2.385 Hornady 100 AMAX: 2.306 85 Sierra HP : 2.224
That means Mag Length on the first two using 2.300 mags like ASC makes.
