Sol.torluemke....thanks for all your help! After loading one round with COL of 2.25", more than 75% of the bullet is seated in the bullet, so I think I've decided to try a different bullet.
According to Hornady's manual COL is 2.250" for that bullet in an Ar-15. I would load up a few and see what you think.
The problem is that theyre seated so deep you run the risk of set back... I shoildnt have said you cant do it, because people do it, i just dont think its a good idea... I went down the same road about a year ago and came to the conclusion it wasnt worth it and switched to match 75 gr bthp... They still. Will buck the wind, and theyre ridiculously accurate out of my 24 inch bull with 322 or 335 or hell ev 748...
Out of curiosity when you seated them did it compress your load?

Yeah, I loaded one with powder and it did compress the load.
Did the neck go past the ogive?... what was the crimp like?
Yeah, it did. I just got an email back from Hornady and they gave me a COL of 2.39".
Yeah... I read on arf of guys shooting them out of AR's, so you could do it, but i'd rather launch the 75 gr match bthp's down range..
