[QUOTE="snox801, post: 1747426, member: 54383"] This is what I was getting at just didn’t know how to say it. Just found it odd that some people seem ok doing it on a 700 foot print action others don’t. I personally think Kirby had the right take. Yes a factory 700 can work if staying reasonable with loads. Not going over known safe speed because lapua brass can hide pressure so easy. So my thought is if you use an aftermarket action and still load to safe known speeds you should have that slight added layer of protection over the factory. Ideally a bigger cheytac action would be great but not a ton of stock options available for that. Just kinda got me wondering why people were ok doing Norma based rounds on a aftermarket 700 action but said no way to a lapua. [/QUOTE]
