Range report: I ran the different length 155 grain HPBTs, each seated to a different COAL, with Win brass and loads of H4895 from 40-44 in 0.5 grain increments. The shorter bullets gave me between 2477 and 2790, the medium length bullets gave me between 2530 and 2796, and the long bullets gave me between 2540 and 2838. No loads were difficult to extract or resulted in flattened primers. In practical terms, I made it to 2800 fps with all three loads, but I'm going to settle for a less than max load of 43 grains for velocities in the range of 2722 - 2750.
