[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 3294209, member: 15054"] This chamber is already way too long and the diameter of my fired cases are .005" larger than in my Savage. My savage 10 i seat the 168A max to 2.818" for .005" off the lands. This Ruger I get no marks on the bullet until I reach 2.830" I am sure the lands are messed up a bit possibly. I cut the barrel also and I bet all warranty is gone. Not that I would send it anyway. I will try short neck cases and I have some 165 game king HPBT bullets that have a very long bearing surface. Those may give me the best chance at tighter groups.. Heck I would be happy with groups instead of shotgun pattern. [/QUOTE]
