Free bore when changing bullets

[LC Tikka]

My barrel free bore/jump is near zero with regular 7mm hunting bullets, just realised with the help of Sierra changing to LR tipped bullets can give some jump when seated to neck-shoulder as they are thinner up front. The bad part is not enough twist for the longer bullets, but this info may help others.

There are relatively shorter / more blunt effective 7mm hunting bullets available. The Norma Oryx is one, offered in 156 grain and 170 grain in 7mm diameter.
