Maximum Bullet Length

[Highwayrider02]

What's the maximum bullet length I can feed into a Stevens 200 in .30-06? I'm looking at loading a Berger 230 Tactical OTM Hybrid and its length is 1.60".

Thanks.

Your question really depends on how much of said bullet you want shoved into the case.

You could feed a 3 inch bullet if you wanted to, but there wouldn't be much powder space left.

What Hotolds442 said, plus your twist rate. Make sure you have a fast enough twist for that monster. May need a 9 or possibly 8 twist barrel for that beast depending on the velocity you can generate.

I would take a good look into Bergers stability calculator if I was you.

There are a bunch of ways to measure depending if you want to buy tools or not. Get on YouTube (being YouTube not all methods are advisable.)
