[QUOTE="Trickymissfit, post: 1067567, member: 25383"] I've always thought that the Precision Target Action is built off short action specs. That being the case (not a pun), there would be about .50" of case with no place to go. Your trying to stuff a 2.85" case ( 3.60" OAL) into an action designed for a case that's maxed at 2.25". A Mod. 12 single shot action will barely take a 57mm case length, and that's 2.23". Plus that's an open top action verses the small ports of the PTA action. Yes you can open them up, but you'll also induce some flex. A .300WSM probably will work. gary [/QUOTE]
