[QUOTE="7stw, post: 632280, member: 22854"] Well, first things first. I too have a Sako 75, in 7 mm STW, and two Remington STW's, one is a semi custom, and the other is a factory Sendero. The longest magazine is the Sako. I can load them out to 3.702 OAL, and still fit into the box. However, the Sako , and both of the Remingtons are freebored. I do not know how much, but would not be surprised if it wasn't in the .300-.325 area. Nevertheless, it precludes the ability to engage rifling, and fit into the box. If you have a series V Sako, that is about the longest factory action that I know of. I have been shooting , or have shot Berger VLD's that are 168 grain, and thet shoot just fine. I do think that if you were to load them out to engage the throat, you will not be able to eject a live round, unless you pull the bolt. What caliber is your Sako in? I bought mine Christmas eve, and absolutely love it. So anyway, either action will work, but you will have to pull the bolt to extract a live round. Welcome to the Brotherhood of the 7mm STW.
