[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 1788680, member: 30902"] I wouldn't be afraid of any of the major manufacturers but for example, I would never build any of the super size magnums larger than the Rum Case on even a Remington 700 because there's just not enough meat to work with and the action gets very thin once it's milled enough to open it up for the extra large case. I also don't think I'd build something like that on an action that didn't have both front and rear locking lugs. As a rule I would not use an action for a cartridge the parent manufacturer doesn't support in their own factory or custom rifles. Like I said, liability concerns will keep the US manufacturers and importers from producing inherently risky or dangerous actions but we can get into trouble doing customs on actions not designed to support the cartridge.
