I did the split case thing. Did it about 25 times to get an average then colored the bullet with magic marker and looked for the land marks. I had an old bench rest shooter that taught me to use a fired case over the bullet tip to measure overall length. I use a spent .22 case for the grendel. Anybody's number is really pointless for you to know in my opinion. Their equipment is not yours. I'm jealous of the hinged floorplate. I wish I would have had that option. If you have room go long. I throated mine .25 inches. My pet load is 33.3 grains of LVR behind a 123.5 gr. partition. (Tip filed off to the gilding metal)
