[QUOTE="MontanaRifleman, post: 1053825, member: 11717"] Howdy Brit, I did a 300 RUM build off of a 7mm Weatherby 700 action and the feed rails did need some opening up...which the smith for got to do, so I did it myself after it was nitrided...not a lot of fun. But yes, you will probably need to open up the feed rails. Also, consider getting the extended mag box installed if you want a repeater. Not sure if you will need one and the way to know would be to add the length of the case to the shoulder neck junction to the length of the bullet minus the tail length to get your COAL and maybe add .100 for wiggle room. And one other thing..... better order 2 barrels for that 7 RUM :rolleyes::D [/QUOTE]
