My ASC that I dedicated to this NY fixed mag, top load, build measures out at 2.305. Using a Hornady modified case and gauge, I set one to 2.28 without touching the lands. If I'm measuring correctly, the 129 starts to jamb in the lands at 2.385. Does that sound right? Isn't that a huge jump? I'll load up a few dummies at 2.28 or maybe 2.275 and see if they'll feed reliably.
No that jump sounds about correct.
It contacts at 2.380 and 2.387 in my short barrels as well.
2.280 should help get it going. I'm able to use 2.295 in my cpd and six8 mags.
