[QUOTE="yobuck, post: 1494800, member: 12443"] The 300 Norma case is the same as the 338 Lapua as for head dimensions. The Norma was designed around using 700 Rem actions and many are using it on those actions. Take a look at the bolt face and there is very little left of the rim. But then the push feed Mauser actions along with model 70s have no recess at all, just a flush bolt face with the side extractor. I personally prefer a larger bolt diameter for the larger cases, and would prefer a Weatherby action over a Rem for that reason for those type cartridges. The argument remains however as to the actual strength factor. [/QUOTE]
