105 AMAX/BTHP in .243 throated for 115 DTAC?

[LoneWolfUSMC]

What kind of performance can I expect shooting 105 AMAX or BTHP through a Tooley Custom barrel throated for 115 DTACs?

I ask because all I can find locally is the 105 Hornady or 107 Sierras. I don't really want to buy 500 DTACs just to screw around with this barrel, but if I am not going to get sub-MOA accuracy from it, then it's not worth wasting the powder.

I have a used Tooley tube for my AI that another member on here sent to me. It doesn't look too bad and may have enough life in it for me to play with.

I called Tooley Custom Rifles today. They said that even though it's throated for the 115's it may shoot the 107 or 105's better than the 115's.

Sounds like I just need to pick some up and throw them downrange to see. I still need to order dies and waiting on my AI wrench, so it's no hurry.
