After scowering the internet for a few days and really finding zilch, im asking for help. Ive having an impossible time finding the oal for the berger vld 140gr with the 6.5 creedmoor . I understand that berger recomends the bullet just off the lands but how much? Im shooting the model 12 lrp. Or if you've got some good loads those are more than welcome too. Thanks
first let me rec. the 6.5 creedmoor forum ;-} second try going from 2.80 to 2.90 hornaday says its 2.80 my 11 LRH shot the 140s best at 2.90 and touched at 2.98ish this is from bace to tip of bullet

Mine are sitting at 2.883 out of my model 12 LRP and shooting great.
How about running some tests on the ammo? When my rifle barrel still had very few rounds through it, it likes 2.814". Now that it has 2,500 through it, it now likes the 2.820" COAL
