Bullet length
I am working on a subsonic stability question.

Please measure your bullet lengths (not case length) and post the results along with the weight and make in this thread.

In particular I am looking for 150gr and up bullets. I would love to see some data on 180gr bullets.

Is there a specific caliber you are interested in?

The top one on my list is .308.
Based on everything I have been able to pull/gather, I am missing round nosed bullets between 150-200gr.

I think I have enough .224 bullets to figure out what I am working on for it.

And I may have enough .458 to figure it out, but if you have some of the more expensive bullets, I would love to see the data.

Although not part of my current issue, 50BMG bullets would be interesting.
