That one escaped me, it's not listed in the Sierra manual, but I found it in the Nosler book.

The thing that jumps at me is that with a .535 bolt face, if I'm not happy with it I'm sort going to be very limited in choice of calibers to rebarrel. The other thing is that when you get into the 105-115 grain bullets the velocity comes right back to 3,000 fps. So there isn't much gained, if anything over the .437 bolt face cases.

I guess I should include the 105 Berger hybrid as basic criteria. That's what I'm planning on using.
