Some of the more established hammers are pretty close, the ones that were calculated using shot drops tend to be quite generous

They are more like a ballistic tip than an accubond. The 130 tgk @3300fps worked well on 2 deer and a black bear last year. The 110 out of a 257 would preform much like the nosler bt, put one through the lungs and off the shoulder and enjoy

The seating depth isn't necessarily a pressure issue so much as the e tips tend to shoot better with a jump of 50 thou or more.
Also- if you shoot long range the bcs are super inflated

I'd run that reamer up there, worst case you end up with an Ackley improved tomato stake and have an excuse for a new barrel.

Vx3i, Vx5hd, vx6hd, lrp, mark 5hd all reliably dial and rtz.
Many forums arent kind to leupold and it's a shame as leupold is turning out a fine product. I have a mark 4 that just turned 10,000-
According to the Internet it's a terrible scope and I should have bought a nightforce.
Would I...
Although I dont own one ... the 280ai looks to be the perfect western deer/antelope cartridge. Standard bolt face, light handy rifle, flat and tons of bullet choices from 120-180 grains.

3250 isnt even that fast I shoot the 140 out of a 270 wby @ 3350 and it performs admirably normally pass throughs I've only caught one and that went from stem to stern on a frontal chest shot
Looks like the bullet encountered a shoulder blade

The eld-m was finicky to tune in a saami freebore. Eld-x and 140 berger elite hunters shot lights out. 1000 rds is doable especially with the extreme hodgdon powders/imr enduron and avoiding us869.
