I'm thinking of buying more 90gr TGKs, so checked my barrels. These bullets have short bearing surface and long ogives to get their high BCs.
Savage 110T 2.365" to touch
Howa mini 2.345" to touch
20" Faxon heavy fluted AR barrel 2.310" to touch (side charger with no gas system)
The 110T seemed to like .030" off the lands, so doesn't leave much bullet in the case neck. This isn't a problem for me since I'm single loading anyway, but could be for someone feeding from a magazine.
