[QUOTE="DJ Fergus, post: 2279031, member: 93895"] Your action & magazine is so short and doesn't leave you many options to use anything longer than a WSSM cartridge. I'm not telling you what to do but you probably have enough room to run a long heavy 224 bullet in a 223 wssm chamber with a long throat so you can seat the bullet out above the neck shoulder junction. Something like a 88 eld, 95 smk, or 85.5 Berger etc.... You would need 7.5 to 8 twist barrel. You should be able to push those weight bullets to around 3300 fps give or take 50fps. This would work for deer sized game & less [/QUOTE]
