[QUOTE="RockyMtnMT, post: 228730, member: 7999"] My project is an on going project, the stock and mag were planned on originally. This rifle is for my son to shoot and when he is large enough to handle a full size stock then we will finish the project. The 6.5 bullets are very long, and to seat them as deep as I am now does take up some case capacity. I don't think it would be detrimental to the cartridge to cut the bore to fit a standard mag though. I am getting 2950fps w/o pushing the 130g Scirocco hard. When we get the longer mag box and can seat closer to the lands then I'll see what it can do. Steve [/QUOTE]
