    Bushing size for 223 Lapua and 77 grain SMK

    Re: Bushing size for 223 Lapua and 77 grain SMK What is the outside diameter of a loaded round using Lapua brass and a .224 bullet? I have read that it is good to use a bushing .004 smaller than a loaded round when using the ammunition in an AR15.

    I have about 80 rounds that I loaded for my 700P before I sent it to GA Precision to be rebarreled that I forgot about. The rounds do not fit the new chamber.
