[QUOTE="cdherman, post: 877079, member: 12282"] OAL is a SAAMI spec just asking to be broken. That's the whole point of using a long action. I'll likely put a 1:7 or 1:7.5 twist barrel and throat it relatively long, so that my long heavy bullets are not seated way down in the case, taking up case capacity. That's what I did with my Shilen barrel in 7mm RSAUM -- custom throated to the heavy Bergers. Shooting a 6" group -- at 500 yards, with some wind, off the hood of my truck. Not bad, for a gun I screwed together myself on a Savage action, then bedded into a Boyds stock my self. I'm just learning and having fun.... [/QUOTE]
