Vapor Trails

Im takin the .139gr 6.5 Vapor Trails for a spin around the block in a 6.5x47 Lapua.
Does anyone have any first hand experience with seating this round in my application.
Its a Krieger 28 inch 4 grove straight pipe.
Just tryin to get an idea of how far out from the lands they seem to favor. I shot some .010
into the rifling and they seem to shoot good, however ultimately its not how id like to run them
for Competition.
 
Tom told me to try .015” off the lands. Unfortunately, my freebore won’t allow it. I think .180”+ would be ideal for them.
 
Thanks fellas...Ill load some up and see how they do, working out in .003 from
touch and going out to .020.....should get me started, or finished.
