[QUOTE="Texis, post: 3036100, member: 121376"] The rifle is not yet fully assembled, barreled action only currently. I based the “too long” on various OEM 280AI cartridge lengths, various post on max cartridge and the rounds will not fit through the ejection port, which is where you load a BDL. Norma 280AI round is 3.330, which is .110-.145 shorter. When jamming 140 VLDs, there is only a few thousands in the neck.. so it’s not going to shoot the 140s at all. the rifle was a 25-06. Didn’t want to keep moving forward on the assembly if the chamber is not cut correctly. Thanks [/QUOTE]
