    6.5 grendel guys loading for 95gr vmax

    Hey all. Reloading for my 16" grendel, and coming up with what may be an issue with the 95gr vmax. what is everyone loading length wise? going off where my ogive is hitting the lands, im getting a OAL(tip to primer) of roughly 2.11" which seems VERY short. This is about as long as I can load them or they are jamming into the lands. Should I be OK loading them this short or just not load the vmax's for my rifle? Seem like my chamber is short over all, but the vmaxs just really dont like my chamber it seems.

    Have you checked the headspace?

    That is quite short, especially when you consider the profile of the bullet.
