[QUOTE="cdherman, post: 565064, member: 12282"] [b]Re: Maximum Cartridge Overall Length COL in Savage Short Action centerfeed magazine??[/b] Very helpful -- your magazine observations seem to agree with what I am thinking. I am going to the 7mm SAUM case since its about .2 shorter than the WSM to start with. I am hopeing to get the long 168 and 180 Bergers to actually reach the lands AND fit in the magazine, but I am not sure it will happen. Shilen will throat the barrel to my specs, so long as my spec is longer than their reamer. IE, no short throat. I'm not sure I want a custom short throat barrel anyhow, as 7mm SAUM is a standard cartridge and standard manufacturer loads could prove dangerous in a short throat, if someone stuck one in....
