I am looking for a mag for the 6.5 ss I want to be able to load out as long as possible Woundering what length mag that will work for the 156 Bergers in a short action can't seem to find anything longer than 2.955 coal
 
Are you running a chassis or a stock? Wyatt's extended box would be an option depending on your setup. But I'm afraid you are likely at the longest short action magazine length you can go currently.
 
A 156 Elite fits in an Accurate WSM mag with .010" additional clearance, ends up being about .026" jump to lands in the 6.5SS chamber.
In a Wyatt's 2.980" extended box, you can seat them to the lands.
 
My AICS WSM mags are 2.98" internally, but definitely need 0.005-0.01" clearance or something to feed.

Where do you find the 2.980 length mags? All the ones I look at are 2.950. Is the 2.950 with a binder plate?
