[QUOTE="Shane Lindsey, post: 2845343, member: 25831"] I asked a similar typ question in the gunsmithing section and was pretty quiet too. Most of the folks using those long oal mags are using actions that were cut with a long mag cut or have had it modified to fit (not Savage). The issue, is that there is not a lot of Savage aftermarket support for this. I have had the same frustations. I have a 110, 338 Lapua that I want to lighten up a touch. I have found the easiest way will be to purchase a stock and have it inletted for the blind mag (from an individual because McMillan and Manners no longer support Savage). I will use the single feed sled and just do it that way. Not being able to feed from a mag is a little disappointing, but Savage support is tough. My BM was actually milled out and the mag cut and welded to allow loading longer than the stock/factory Accurate Mag system. If you want to use the chassis, I think you may be SOL with the Savage. Just my expirience. [/QUOTE]
