Loading sierra tipped matchking for 6.5 creedmore and calls for COAL of 2.81, factory round that run well in mags are toward 2.75 how close can I get to that? Using 35.1 H4895
If the rounds will not feed from the magazine, they are worthless unless you load one round at a time.
Find the maximum length that will fit in the mag and work with that. Start at 2.81 and work down until the rounds feed in and out of the mag without binding.
You load manual should have a diagram showing the SAAMI dimensions for that caliber. The COAL shown in that diagram is the max OAL that the mag was designed to work with.
The COAL that Sierra gave cannot be longer than the SAAMI number. If it is, then it's a mis-print and you should call Sierra for the corrected information. They might even send you a new manual.
