[QUOTE="StumpyJohnson, post: 2816438, member: 122458"] I think the only question is one of feeding which I'm still not certain of, I understand that all my other design constraints for the cartridge kinda go out the window when utilizing a long action. But its what I have and what I'd like to use. The tikka seems the most sensible format because I can swap the bolt stop and magazine and (I'd imagine) be fine. BUT, finding an extra tikka bolt with the proper sized face is the difficulty. The Zeus is easier to find the parts for, but the question is whether the hawkins hunter dbm, using a la standard mag, will feed effectively. Seems to me that it should, but what do I know. What I do know is that I'm definitely a "F%*$ around and find out" type of guy. And I bet with few chunks of delrin and a dremel I could probably fab up some sort of spacer. [/QUOTE]
