Well I got some 178gr AMAX's today and am going to try my hand at reloading for my 700VS(.308win)for the first time. Checked the OAL and came up with 2.935" to get .017" off the lands. With this measurement I am a little concerned about there only being .283"(not counting the Boat tail) of the bullet in the case...I keep being told by some guys at the shop that I want at least the diameter of the bullet to be in the case. Is this something I should be worried about? Also has anyone had any luck just loading the 178AMAX to 2.80" in a rem SPS-VS or PSS?
Thanks Guys
