[QUOTE="Methow Packer, post: 1334800, member: 67515"] I'm building a rifle and want advise on how to determine the right throat dimension for my chamber. Would you choose the shortest bullet you may use and place the seating depth just past the boat tail. Then that would be the throat length? Then any bullet I'd use longer would be seated deeper only because of its length. Example might be a 30 cal 190 ABLR is the shortest so the throat would be set to that length? Any longer bullet say 200 or 212 ELD-X would have to be seated deeper. I imagine you wouldn't want to throat your chamber using the longest bullet you might use. Please help me understand what length of the throat would be best [/QUOTE]
