[QUOTE="westcliffe01, post: 789759, member: 35183"] I have a Rem 700 long action chambered at the factory for 8x57. From what I can gather my bolt face is 0.47" My internal magazine has plenty of length left over with the 8x57. I thought I would be all set with doing a barrel swap to 6.5x284 Norma, but now I see that cartridge has a rebated rim which is 0.473, but the base is actually 0.5". Will my bolt work, or will it need to be modified/replaced ? [/QUOTE]
