[QUOTE="Koda_, post: 2602448, member: 121268"] This is good to know. Im glad I noticed this as I can consider a deeper throat but I dont want to limit my options of using lighter bullets down to 100g (like the photo). It could be that I leave the chamber throat standard length and compromise on the bullet and use a ligher Hammer like the 121g Hammer Hunter which is 1.35" long and ~should put the base around the lower shoulder junction which shouldnt be that bad to work with attaining good velocities. My smith has my rifle so I cant check the mag length but its a Rem 700 long action and has always had way more room in the mag for factory ammo. It sounds like I have to decide how much I "really" want to use the heavier/longer bullets. [/QUOTE]
