I don't have the numbers in front of me but the OAL you recommended is way too short. The first ones I loaded long actually worked till I tried your recommendation and that is when everything went sideways.

Assuming your brass is 1.355 long, a Nosler 125 BT which is loaded to 2.085 OAL will be inserted into the case 0.330 inches (including the boat tail), and the boat-tail shank seat depth is 0.227. Really it is perfect for efficiency, neck/bullet support, and feeding,

I would agree the 125gr BT is a much better choice. Not quite as explosive as the 110 VMAX though but still a good choice.

Last night I removed the 125 Nosler Ballistic tips I had loaded over 22 grains of H110. I wasn't happy with the accuracy. I reloaded the same bullets back using 18.5 grains of H110 with 2.065" overall length. I was very pleased with the accuracy from my brand new SSK 26 inch encore barrel. Today was the first time I had shot it. Equally surprized and pleased when I shot a few 150 gr ballistic tips I loaded last year using 18 grains of H110. No change in impact at 100 yards. I can shoot either one this fall hunting and know the scope will stay on zero and the deer will fall down.
