[QUOTE="sedancowboy, post: 1821415, member: 85874"] I hope that is a typo because the pressure per sq in is the same over the larger area of the LM case head thus having more thrust on the lugs. If it is the same pressure it can't reduce it. It can add more force to the Lugs because of the larger surface area. Really we are talking about lugs and abutments. The bottom lug abutment is the weak link in a Remington 700 action therefore as Kirby stated it was set back the most. Thus the 700 Action did not have the necessary safety margin to satisfy him when the The LM was used. [/QUOTE]
