.338 Lapua loading for magazine feed

[sewwhat89]

With a .338 Lapua repeater w/DBM, if MAX coal for magazine is 3.825", what depth should I load rounds to maintain the magazine feed without worrying about the bullets getting slammed back? I was thinking 0.02-0.025", but I have not loaded for magazines before. Thanks.

I would base the length on that particular bullet's measurement to the lands, also depending on where that bullet likes to be seated to shoot well.

Like 338 said you will need to know where your lands are.
