OAL for Hornady spire points
Does any one have the new Hornady manuals.Until I get my hand on them could someone tell me what the oal for the Rem 6mm w/ 100 gr spire point and Rem 7mm-08 w/ 139 gr spire point interlock.

Thanks

6mm 100gr sp is 2.285" oal.
7-08 139gr sp is 2.75" oal.
these are refrence length for those bullets they can be seated out farther as long as the fit you magazine.
I like to start at .005" off the lands and adjust the bullet set from that.

transposed the numbers 2.825" should pay more attention to what I mean.
