[QUOTE="mcdil, post: 2634120, member: 112571"] If you do happen to try the Afterburner in the 300 Savage, you will want to push it a bit forward out of the case between .030" - .040" more than the stated projection length on our website. This will work just fine and be well within 2.800". The reason is for the incredibly short neck of the 300 Savage, loaded at the stated projection length, the rear boss would be in the case, not contacting the neck.
