Yeah and action length mine is based on a T3 set up with a long throat so COAL is 3.125” the Greg Dooley articles on the PRC in his magazine had the saami coal at 2.825”

I found a good article by Brian Litz on the benefits of this “In fact, the extra powder you can add to a cartridge with the bullet seated long will allow you to achieve greater velocity at the same pressure than a cartridge with a bullet seated short.” “After all, when you seat the bullet out longer and leave more internal case volume for powder, your effectively making the cartridge into a bigger cartridge by increasing the size of the combustion chamber.”

My 7 saum is not far off a 7 prc with a 20” barrel velocity wise.

Gone to harder ADG brass from norma 300 saum necked down.

I think barrels make a difference too some just seem faster.
