[QUOTE="Weatherby Fan, post: 1597057, member: 29953"] You can use a Rem 700 Long Action, .532" magnum bolt face for the 300 PRC, the standard feed ramp works fine, the Rem mag box is 3.7" long and the loaded factory Hornady 225gr ELD-M ammo is 3.670" the 225gr ELD-X is 3.650", Ive already loaded and shot the 230gr ScenarL, 210gr VLDs as well as both factory loads and no issue feeding any of them. My first build is on a Kimber Montana 8400 (300 winmag donor) and the gunsmith just opened the mag box up to 3.7" and works like a dream, the barrel is a 26" Hells canyon Carbon Fiber 1-9.5 twist I was getting between 2788-2808 with the factory 225gr ELDM-adv vel 2810 and 2839-2847 with the 212gr ELD-X, adv vel 2850fps, this is from a brand new barrel which Im sure will speed up a touch, on another note I was getting 2900fps with 77.0grs of R26 and the 230gr ScenarL's [/QUOTE]
