Ok, well I tried both handloaded rounds and factory rounds.
The bullet is seated short in all the cases I loaded, the 90gr and
130gr. The 130 obviously sticks out a lot longer but it is
seated about as deep as the 90gr.
For factory loads I only had a box of Remington 100 gr soft points
but they produced the same result.
The rifle was new in box, so I"d like to think headspacing wouldn't
be an issue, but its always possible I guess.
For other goodies I got a 3-9 x 40 Bushnell scope, its nothing special
but the glass seems clear at least, and nice little mil-dot reference
chart I can carry in my pocket (no the scope is not a mil-dot
).
I went to the show intent on ONLY purchasing a saiga-12 if I came
across one or a Para Ordnance P18 9mm and I ended up with a
.270.... go figure...
