[QUOTE="crkckr, post: 1587089, member: 78056"] It sounds as though you're going to be pretty much stuck with the OAL dictated by the mag, unless you can mod the mag to give a bit more room. Just remember, that you'll be battering any soft point ammo if it's that close of a fit. The only option is to single load the first round but that's a huge problem in a hunting situation, having 2 kinds of ammo. It's better to just go with what you have available & see how it shoots. Even with an internal mag you are limited in the amount of room you have for OAL. I've loaded ammo at max length for my Rem 700 mag fed rifle and have never had any feeding issues. Same with my AR but some of my mags had to be modded slightly to do so. Give the rifles a go at the range and see how they shoot and hopefully things will work out ok. At the same time, don't be too disappointed if you have to start over loading ammo specifically for the new rifles. No two are ever exactly the same. Cheers, crkckr [/QUOTE]
