[QUOTE="sable tireur, post: 2628776, member: 27307"] Historic development: [ATTACH type="full"]397423[/ATTACH] Something to be aware of. The development by Remington and Winchester resulted in the COAL being limited to 2.775" or just fitting into the short action magazines. Check your throat and leade dimensions before you order a reamer. My reamer is set up to use the Defiance MX box dimensions or a maximum of 3.200" interior box length since I intend to only use the 131, 133 and 135 grain bullets. It's also an Ackley Improved design. Your Tikka action will serve quite well for this longer version. [ATTACH type="full"]397425[/ATTACH] Enjoy the process! :) [/QUOTE]
