[QUOTE="kiwi3006, post: 557617, member: 8927"] You could definitely get a 264 win mag in there. I have a rem 700 LA in 30/06 that I re-barelled to 7mm rem mag. The smith opened up the bolt face and fitted a sako style extractor. There is heaps of room in the magazine, even with a 168 berger loaded to touch the lands. The belted magnum reloading issue is all rubbish. I just full length size all my brass and would be on the 5th reload so far. If you want to stick with correct head stamp then you seem to be stuck with 6.5/284 or 264 win mag. Otherwise the simplest would be 6.5/06. [/QUOTE]
