[QUOTE="highdrum, post: 1379624, member: 13732"] Jimmy Sloan, the designer of the 338 norma, had built all his own test & development rifles off rem 700s. You'll be safe side of the line. Most builders will shy you away from it however. The case capacity of the norma being 107ish grains is far less than say 300 ultra @ 120 grains. I personally am building my 338 norma improved off a Curtis axiom which will be done in a month or so.....my reasoning is the 750 bolt diameter, 3 locking lugs and 60° bolt lift. I am looking forward to having this rifle built & load development finished prior to elk season this fall. [/QUOTE]
