[QUOTE=".300 Dakota, post: 2417253, member: 106514"] Same here. I would go with a BDL design if available. Maybe in the 3.0...??🤣 Another issue I'll have is the follower and feed lips in any magazine the size we're discussing. Especially the Ultra Mag CIP (vs 300 Win Mag CIP - but diameter is close to the same at the belt, so I guess it's a wash). My case body is only half an inch. I tried running a 284 in a magazine box made for WSM 7-round and I had to bend the lips in at the top of the magazine to hold the cartridge in place. If I put more than 3 in the mag. Not sure if it will be as easy (actually was a bit of a pain to bend it right) depending on magazine. I guess what I'm forgetting is the magazines are independent of the bottom metal. There are multiple magazine types available for a given bottom metal... potentially. Another option would be to buy a factory gun chambered for the parent case with a magazine made especially for the rough design. But I'm still in the same place with mag length. The parent case has .105" freebore and I'm going more than twice that. No way my rounds fit that magazine. Single shot, anyone??🤣 (Actually only half kidding.) [/QUOTE]
