[QUOTE="RT2506, post: 728585, member: 10178"] If you are having built a custom rifle you can have them put what length throat you want in it. I have a custom built 264 Win mag with a Shilen 27 3/4" long barrel. I did not have the rifle built so I did not have a say so in the throat length. I load 130 Nosler Accubonds 3.450 COAL and that is 20 thousands off the lands. I am loading 66.5 grs Retumbo in cases made from Winchester 7mm Rem mag run through the 264 Win FL sizer and lit by CCI 250s and I average 3350 fps and half MOA accuracy. Get your barrel on the 264 Win mag at least 26" longer is better. If you want a 24" barrel you might as well go with the 6.5-06 because you want gain much over it with the 264 Win mag and the barrel will last you a lot longer. If you want your rifle to use 140 VLDs loaded out long make you up a dummy round the length you want and send it to the gunsmith doing the barrel so he can throat it. Just make sure that the length will work through your magazine. [/QUOTE]
