auction # 330902117 It looks like these are seated way too deep to me. What are your thoughts? I think they should be seated to around 2.240 coal. True I should ask before saying it could be the angle it looks like the bearing surface is in the case ill ask seller thank you nononsense

    coop359,

    How can you tell from this photograph? It's angle away from you so true length and proportion will be hard to judge.

    E-mail him and ask what the OAL of the cartridge is.

    The 50 gr. VMAX is 0.800" in length. With an OAL of 2.260 you will have 0.300" in the case and 0.500" sticking out of the mouth.

    Best.

    I load that bullet in a 22/250, and it always looks too deep. I load not for "Looks" but for function and accuracy.[;)]
