[QUOTE="fj40, post: 504538, member: 33565"] It's been that way since the gun was new. I've been told that a bullet should be seated one diameter in the neck .224 in this case. Tech guys at barnes bullets said that with a 1-14 twist anything heavier than 40 grains nonlead would not stabilize. He rocomended 36 grain bullets. I have been thinking of having the barrel set back and have the smith make it so at least one bullet width is in the neck. Then it would give me some versatility. [/QUOTE]
