I had a custom 7 twist 25-06ai built to shoot the heavy hammers. My guess is the smith didnt throat the chamber long. How much velocity will I lose if I seat about .020" off the lands? ...the bullet will protrude deep inside the case reducing case volume and potential for case "donuts" (so I hear).
left bullet and center show (about) where I can seat about .020" off the lands. Right bullet shows about where ideally the bullet should be seated. There is about .165" difference... so I would need to have the freebore reamed out by about that much.
