[QUOTE="JakeC, post: 2226445, member: 115819"] Does anyone know WHY they started making large shank actions? Was it a gimmick? Optics? Was it because there was less barrel to begin with in the barrel nut system? It's not like Remington went up in size when they released the SAUM. I don't know about winchester but I really doubt it. 7 and a half thousandths though, that's about a 1.5 percent increase in thickness around the chamber. Doesn't seem quite worth it. Oh well, now we have something to talk about and barrel makers get to fret about customers getting it wrong and blaming it on them. [/QUOTE]
