.081 I can't think about AI mag length with anything longer.
and I went 22" barrel so I wasn't exactly chasing ever extra foot.
 
No turn on Norma 7saum is just about a slip fit neck.
I LIKE THE EVO SO MUCH ORDERED TWO SS EVO ACTIONS TO BUILD A HEAVY 308 and a ????? Kinda want another 243ai but a 8 twist this time

I get 156 Eol at see level to jump transonic with no problems with a 8t proof
Ya gonna go 5R?
 
Maybe a 6x47 L.

got a 6.5x47 for the boy in the works. On a LAW/ ed brown action. It was a 308 but shot like hell. He's to small for a 308 to be fun anyway.
sounds like the evos ship in two or three weeks.
