I'm using a Hornady comparator and OAL gauge. With the comparator, I'm getting .664 with both bullets. The lapuas are a bit more consistant I've noticed, but the averages seem to be the same.

With Hornady LNL, five bullets averaged. About the same variability between types.

Ogive OAL
0.647 175 SMK
0.653 155 Scenar

Ogive to Pressure Ring
0.467 175 SMK
0.454 155 Scenar
