[QUOTE="LeddSlinger, post: 1610601, member: 65338"] Not trying to offend fellas. Just my opinion from being down these roads many times. Belted mags work great when a person knows to headspace off the shoulder instead of the belt. Having a chamber throated out for longer bullets can be done very easily by hand with a throating reamer. All you have to do is remove the bolt from the receiver. But you shouldn't have to do that if building a custom rifle. Just design or rent the proper reamer in the first place. OP isn't looking for a factory rifle here. RUM would be even more accurate and consistent if throat was designed to seat the bullet properly. Unfortunately a person wanting to use that round in a repeater will never know the rounds true potential. Could do it on a single shot. [/QUOTE]
