Alright so I got a Rem 700 aac-sd in .308 today and was working up some loads for it. I have a question about the COL. I was loading IMR 4064 starting a 42.3 and laddering up to 44.0 with FED 210. I'm using Hornady interlock 165g sp. I trimmed my new Win cases to 2.005 and started at 2.75 COL. It seems like I'm hitting when trying to close the bolt and was wondering about my seating depth. I did a little research and watched this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jv-D1mEI514&feature=related
so I removed my firing pin and seated all the way down to 2.618 and my bolt still doesn't drop freely like on the video....and according to all you guy your COL is like 2.8 or so. What am I doing wrong. I'm sorry this is a basic idiot new guy question.
