I had feeding problems with the NEI 122 gr truncated cast bullet. Then I read Sieger's advice on overall length. I increased the cartridge length and found 28.5 to 29.0 mm solved my problems. This length does leave the lube groove exposed. And it is too long for some current production magazines.

I also found that limp wristing guaranteed feeding trouble.
