thanks. Just wanted to make sure something wasn't wrong with the rifle. When I use the Hornady OAL tool to check where the lands is its got an extremely long throat where the bullet almost falls out of the case. I thought that was a little extreme but its my coyote rifle so only gets shot a few times a year so I don't try to wring out all the accuracy.Chamber size.
Whether a stouter neck that allows bypass or more voluminous body reducing pressure. Throat and leade will change pressure as well.
Different powders will leave varying amounts of soot.
A semi auto's timing is a variable too.
I am under the impression they are the same caliber.
You got my curiosity now. Would handloading make it cleaner because of the type of powder or the brass/bullet being fitted to the gun?One of the best by-products of handloading are finer accuracy and cleaner firearms without even trying.

I thought in the past you have said both of your your Savages had a short throat and had to load shorter then the manual said. ?When I use the Hornady OAL tool to check where the lands is its got an extremely long throat where the bullet almost falls out of the case.

Nope just the heavy barrel. With the regular barrel i could go way past book OAL. I generally load the reg barrel at the 2.250 (book spec)I thought in the past you have said both of your your Savages had a short throat and had to load shorter then the manual said. ?
