[QUOTE="lurcher, post: 208438, member: 6348"] There seems to be a common problem with short actions running short magnum calibres not having enough length in the magazine to allow easy feeding of bullets that are seated out to the lands. I understand that for remington 700 short actions you can fit a wyatts extended magazine and machine the rear end of the receiver magazine slot to get more length. Are there any fixes for other actions like the model 7 where the trigger is pretty much hard up against the magazine? It is possible for instance to remove the barrel and recut the chamber with a shorter throat (despite case capacity loss)? [/QUOTE]
