I am seating my 95gr VMAX's to 2.220 COL, and the bullets will get stuck in the throat if I attempt to eject the round. Has anyone else had this issue?

Same here
I have attached a pdf file showing how I arrived at my seating depth for the 95gr VMAX.
The load show is safe in mine use discretion and work up for your rifle. As you can see it shoots pretty well and drops song dogs in their tracks.

I also found out the hard way. After buying the hornady hardware to check seating depth to the lands, both 95 vmax, and 100 amax both touch the lands at 2.237 for me in my JP 22" barrel.
I seat both bullets to 2.217 and have really good luck with groups. Both of them I'm shooting over a charge of 26.1 gr 10X. Hope this helps!!

Apynckel, you might want to be careful using the vmax for deer, they explode on impact maybe 6-8" of penetration. Search on youtube for Hornady bullets, they have high speed video of what the bullets do when they hit ballistic gel. I know that the amax isn't a hunting bullet but might look into the 100gr amax, or maybe the Nosler 100gr BT. I've read alot of reviews on miday about guys shooting the 100gr Nos BT and deer are DRT. Hope this helps.
