[QUOTE="Guest, post: 29939"] Having said that, I've decided to modify and bring to a closer burner my own similar project. It's 2 1/3" long and improved, 1/3" neck, 35* shoulder, 1 5/6" body, and ought to be very much like the 30 Phil above, but with long neck. A bit less capacity using the Lap case, perhaps. Throated for the 190's and up. This might be a good time to confess to you all that I'm a die-hard Winnie fan, and I plan to bastardize a 300 WSM for this little toy. The 24" bbl won't tell us much about the round, but it should give me the go/no-go on having a longer, fluted, braked barrel put on with an A4 stock and so forth. [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img] To answer my own Q about "why short action," I will be hopefully keeping it all under 8# loaded. That SA will trim a few precious ounces. The M70 is not known for light weight. [ 12-22-2003: Message edited by: youngun ] [/QUOTE]
