[QUOTE="richhymas, post: 2097701, member: 43504"] This is exactly what I was thinking. I just found a lefty Tikka. unfortunately it is in a 6.5 needmore. Probably good to shoot for targets and practice as I adjust to left handed shooting, but once I start hunting with it I will want to re-chamber it in a short mag. If not the 7mm sherman max, then in the 7 mm WSM. if factory brass is available rather than fire forming, that is my preference. I would love to work up a great hammer hunter load. My understanding is that I will need to change the bolt head switching from the 6.5 creedmore to the 7 mm WSM as well as possibly the magazine as well, however I should be able to chamber it to accept bullets loaded very long to maximize case capacity and get near the lands. hopefully I can get a long magazine as well to accomodate longer than SAMMI reloads.
