[QUOTE="buster2765, post: 1776805, member: 62527"] Looking at there two calibers for my for my next Savage build. Leaning toward the 6.5 because I have the big stuff covered. Whichever way I go my only question is what(SAVAGE) action will work best for each. For the 300 does savage make a long action with a mag. that will fit the 3.7 coal of the 300prc (without going to there 338lm action). Or does someone make aftermarket bottom metal & magazine for savage that will work with 3.7 coal. If I go with the 6.5prc my concern is do I go long or short action. It will be shooting 143 eld or 140 vld out of a 22 or 24 proof pre-fit. The short action savage mags. I measured were right at 3in. With the saami 2.955 coal max might be a little tight if I need to stretch them out. Let me know the good, bad & ugly for these two. Just because I like to show it off here is my last project. savage 112 magnum target action 24in proof barrel 338 LM, McMillan game hunter stock, break & chambered by LRI 12.5 lbs with scope & bipod[ATTACH=full]162444[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]162445[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
