[QUOTE="backwoods83, post: 531746, member: 29890"] You can put a 7wsm on a standard savage action with no issues, its the same size as a remmy 700 and bigger then a M70 winchester, just get on the midway or brownells web site and spend 25 dollars on the controled round feed bolt head that mikecr spoke of and use a slightly heavier contour, like a #5 with 6 radial flutes and have it finished at 26-28" with a 9.5 twist unless you plan to shoot 180 bergers or heavier then go with a 9 twist, but I do not reccomend this on a standard throat wsm chamber because it puts to much of the bullet down into your usable powder space, so it does better on a long action. In my opinion a 7wsm on a long action with a long throated match reamer is way more superior in design than a 7mm rem mag, wsm's are efficient being short fat and sharp shouldered. [/QUOTE]
