I'm trying to start loading for my 25-06 for a PD hunt this fall. It's a custom rifle, built on a Winchester action. I get my dummy bullet out to get length to ogive. Turns out to be 3.870. With 87 grain Nosler BT's, the tail of the bullet is barely, and I mean barely in the case. Certainly not enough to hold the bullets for shooting.
Anybody have an idea of what the length should be, or at least is on your rifle??
Also, any bullets that are longer that will seat into the case and stabilize with a 1-12 twist??
