DRT Terminal Shock Load Data

[Trackselk]

I'm getting a 223 barrel or 2 throated long for the 79 DRT bullets. Anyone have any idea how long beyond my CBTO I should go, or how much minimum jump I should ask for? I'm other words; do these things like to jump like monos, or jam? I generally load pretty hot so I don't jam bullets, but I might if it was the only setup that worked. Thanks for any advice!

I would aim for 0.020 jump with top of the boat tail right at the bottom of the neck. Similar to the photo in post #45 https://rokslide.com/forums/threads/drt-terminal-shock-load-data.347403/post-3733960.

I haven't done any seating depth testing but haven't really felt the need to either. I just load to 0.020 or mag length and shoot.

Thanks! Now to find a smith with a 'close-enough' reamer
