[QUOTE="Bob Wright, post: 1691233, member: 104363"] The donor rifle was a R700, 7RM, all factory bottom metal. The magnum case visually is almost the same OAL as the 280AI case, but did not measure. My plan is to get this into a mid range performer and not press for ultimate speed, but hopefully find a node that is accurate to 600 with the necessary velocity required in that chosen bullet to expand properly. I'm looking at 150gr.+ Hammers or Barnes for lead free hunts in Kaibab, AZ, and 168 Nosler LRAB for target and pack in hunts elsewhere. The Hammers may be the right choice for all. We'll see. Borescope is next on my list as they are on sale. I'll keep good records, hopefully to share with all, down this road. [/QUOTE]
