In my Satern Liberty 18" barrel at max mag length (2.296") 123gr ELD-Ms are still around .030" off the lands, but I found the best groups around 2.260".
BTW, COL measurements don't give you a uniform bullet seating depth in the case with ELD-Ms because the meplat varies so much but measurements to the ogive are consistent. The material forward of the ogive doesn't matter for firing anyway because it never touches the lands. I think the Hornady ogive caliper attachment is worth buying.
