Nosler 190gr ABLR

Finally got my hands on one of these bullets pulled from a loaded Nosler .300WSM round.
It had a cannelure rolled in it and was seated very deeply with a cartridge OAL of 2.81"
Here are the dimensions as best I could measure with the cannelure in place. OAL 1.46, Base to ogive 0.70, BT 0.26, Bearing surface 0.44, Nose 0.76 (all in inches). The boattail is long and has a sharp angle. To me, it looks like it most closely resembles a Berger 210 VLD but has a longer, sharper BT and a shorter bearing surface. Nosler lists the BC as 0.64. I don't have any to reload as I can not find any in stock.
Members comments on reloading with the long sharp boattail and design characteristics?

I have been wanting to try some of these

You have to pay close attention to seating depth I am told.

They were seated very deep in The factory WSM. Almost the entire base to ogive was seated in the case. There must be a pretty big jump to the rifling.
