[Ruansmal]

Hi

Can someone help me with the length of the boat tail and bearing surface of the .338 250gr and 300gr Lapua Scenar, SMK and the 285gr Hornady HPBT. If not perhaps a source?

Already got the the detail for the Berger.

Thanks

Might want to put this link in your "favorites", it is indispensible for reference on bullets. http://www.shootforum.com/forum/bulletdb.html

Just select what caliber bullet you want, and it will generate a list that will give you length and BC's.
