Help Support Long Range Hunting Forum
The point had nothing to do with tuning, and everything to do with COL/ mag length.
Lately I've noticed that CEB is adjusting the location of the "seal tight band" in some of their Gen-2 product offerings. I'm curious and would like to try them to see what comes of it. It appears these are designed to better suit Mag feeding. This is just my personal opinion and I hope @Samantha-CEB will chime in.
It takes a lot of fast to show a noticeable difference down range, but it only takes a little wind to make a miss down range in my experience. My preference is to stack the deck so to speak. I want both when I can get them.
Interesting that the CEB's are now listing the projection length. Some of these that they're listing as single feed may actually be mag fed. I'm looking at the 7mm 160 lazer out of a Sherman 7 Max. Brass length of 2.015 and bullet projection length of 1.051 puts me at 3.066, max mag length is 3.10. I may give these a try.
100% agree, case length and mag box and all that play into it.
What is better. Seems like a decent bc bump, but will probably struggle with throat.
Im late to the party here, but I did want to mention that you can seat the SealTite band up to half ways down the case neck which gives you a lot of room for adjustment. Depending on throat wear, you could also have an additional .100" outside the case neck as well. We all make a MAX and standard version of that 252gr as well. Sealtite band is lower on the single feed version.
