[QUOTE="dennishoddy, post: 3159147, member: 5412"] Reloading the round would solve the issues. The bullet is really long, so getting it closer to the lands shouldn't be an issue if the chamber is correct. Bench rest shooters put the bullet into the lands or a few thousands away. Pressure problems can ensue if the bullet does touch the lands so one has to take the powder load into consideration if you want to go that direction. I do engage the lands with my Browning Stainless Stalker in 30-06. Closing the bolt is stiff, but the powder charge reflects that issue. It's incredibly accurate, taking many deer and 8 elk so far at long ranges with that rifle. [/QUOTE]
