[QUOTE="Max Heat, post: 640747, member: 43153"] Actually, what I would consider to be the optimal approach, would be to exactly duplicate the savage factory 7RUM setup. Would a mag box for one of those work? But for some reason, I don't think that the stagger-fed, non-accutrigger 110 model like the one I have was even available from the factory in 7RUM, or was it? Plus, I was under the impression that the models that DID come in 7RUM had a beefier (larger OD) action. I just measured mine, and it is 1.350. I'm not sure what size the larger one is, but it would make sense that the RUM WOULD have used it. All I know, is something I heard about savage being the only manufacturer that went to a larger size. Is there truth to any of this? If it is true that the factory 7RUM savage actions ARE beefier than the 7RM ones, I won't even consider doing ANYTHING to MY 7RM action that is going to be fitted with a 7RUM barrel. I would just have to accept single-shot mode. [/QUOTE]
