[QUOTE="86bowhunter, post: 1041249, member: 84122"] Well the reason I'm considering the Norma is because it c.o.a.l is shorter and I'm set on shooting the 300gr bullets. A few problems I had with the lapua was that the overall length of the round unless the bullet was seated in as far as my die could get it wouldn't work in the action because of its length. Not fitting in mags, having to hand feed, and if I had it much past bottomed out I had issues getting the unfired rounds out because they were too long. To fix that I had it rechambered with a much shorter throat. Solved the ejecting unfired round issue but it was wasted effort because it still doesn't shoot and any powder charge or seating depth The gun as it sets right now just doesn't shoot as it should.
