I bought a new Savage 10 Predator in 6.5 Creedmoor. I am using the Hornady OAL gauge to find out where the bullet contacts the lands. The bullet I am using is the 140 gr Hornady Amax.

I am getting some pretty short readings, from the Ogive I am getting 2.055. OAL is about 2.67 but I didn't get an exact measurment because I had the Ogive comparator on.

I have only reloaded for my Remington .243 and it likes to be loaded pretty long about 2.7 OAL.

Is this normal for Savage rifles or am I doing something wrong?
