[QUOTE="JaseinMT, post: 818328, member: 69125"] Thank you for your reply! Now to your questions...it is a push feed, button ejector, Browning's version of the super short action. And it is short! The ejection port is just over 2.35", so extending it may come into play...something I hadn't considered. I know there are a few versions of the 6.5wssm out there, but I haven't looked at the numbers for each to compare them. Is yours machined as a 25 necked up to 26? Did you have the throat cut long so you could seat the 140's almost completely in the neck? Are you shooting VLD? What is your coal with the 140's? What barrel length did you go with? I was thinking 24 inches, given the case capacity, but maybe a few more fps with 25". I was thinking around 2800-2850 with 140's. Thanks in advance for your information, Mikecr... [/QUOTE]
