I would not worry about the OAL. As long as you can get the bullets into the magazine. Ruger seems to like long throats. I have 3 Rugers in 220 Swift and all are like yours or longer. My No.1 is so long that I cannot get a 60 grain bullet neat the lands. Even so the 220's are accurate enough for 300 yard woodchucks. I am one gun away from being happy | |||

My 700 VSSF 2.790 makes it a 2 shot but that's ok. I have had the best accuracy 25 thou off the lands with the 52 amax win cases win primers and H-414. The very best load I have found though is same brass same primer with a 55 Grain BTip and H-4831 at 2.720 oal speed runs 3670 on average, groups under 1/2" when I am having a good day. It is more than flat shooting enough as far as I am able to shoot. If you want specifics on load data I have for the swift drop me a PM. | |||
