Have you measured where your lands are ? Coal really doesn't mean anything in a bolt rifle....
 
Here's the data for a 24-inch barrel ...

H20 is 51.94
Case length is 1.910
Col: 2.900
You need to determine your jam length (ie Cartridge base to Ogive length) where the bearing surface of the bullet meets the lands when the round is chambered so you can set up your seating die appropriately.

You also need case head-shoulder datum of your fire formed brass so you can set up your sizing die correctly, unless you plan to neck size only.

Case length and coal aren’t nearly as important
