[QUOTE="JohnMill, post: 756985, member: 32975"] In rereading your opening, while you have a Remington , you describe the shooting of a shellholder bolt. Your bolt should have a snapover extractor that doesn't require placing the cartridge in it. It will seat with the action of chambering. Using it as a shellholder bolt will, I believe, require removing the ejector. I also used my trued Rem700 in 30IHMSA as a shellholder bolt. As J E put it, a PITA, the more you shoot the bigger it is. Re: Borden You can not safely chamber a 338LM in a 700 sized action. That's my read. John [/QUOTE]
