[QUOTE="stu837, post: 1090509, member: 32544"] Hey all, I currently have a Savage 111 long action that is chambered for 25-06. I'm going to be rebarreling to either 260 rem or 6.5x55 Swede and was hoping to get some input from folks who have done the same. My question is, if I go to 6.5x55 will I have any issues with the magazine being able to smoothly and effectively feed the cartridge seeing as how it is optimized for the 30-06 family of cases? I'd like to have the extra powder capacity that the Swede offers, but it won't be worth it to me if I can't cycle the bolt with confidence. Does anyone have any experience in the matter? [/QUOTE]
