So I finally decided to try reloading for fun. Going somewhat cheap and "easy" by playing with a Lee Loader. Want to start with .308 and was looking at what my OAL should be. I have some Sierra 175gr Tipped Matchking, and man...are they long and skinny.

In my Howa 1500 they hit the lands at 2.980" while my Savage 12 is 2.930". Would you guys make up 2 different lengths, or just make a batch at say, 2.910" and be .020 off the Savage and .070 off the Howa? Anyone know if these bullets are sensitive to jumping? Or do you just have to try it and see...

Going to work up some rounds between 43-44 gr of Varget and start from there. I don't have a chrono and will just see how it goes...I am sure I will catch s**t for that.
