[QUOTE="Wachsmann, post: 791630, member: 10429"] I have the 116 and its a long action. I keep my over all length I believe about 3.1 so I dont have trouble running the bolt and the mag. The 140 bergers seat fine and there is no issue with having to seat the bullet deep into the case. The ammo I had pressure issues with was HSM's trophy gold and the bergers were seated much deeper than my loads. They shot about .75 inches at about 3020fps. But when ejecting them my bolt was stiff and I had marking on the case base. I think the savages are defenitly shooters for a factory rifle. Its been the best I have had so far. [/QUOTE]
