Sorry but this is not true. To my knowledge all of the .308 family of cartridges have a length to shoulder of 1.56" (39.62mm). The length to the base of the neck differs due to changes in diameter. A...

2225 is too slow burning for 300wsm. Especially with 160-180 grain bullets. I had a long barrelled jobbie and seated out to nearly 3.200" inches, I could just about get enough 2217 in the case to...
