[QUOTE="geargrinder, post: 703841, member: 6705"] Ok, I get it. You're doing something unique. What I was saying about the RUM action is that it offers no advantage for your build over any other Savage long action. The long action bolt heads have a longer "tail" on the shank that goes into the bolt body. The shank of the bolt head is what stops the firing pin and dictates the firing pin protrusion. The long action 223 bolt heads are around. You just have to find one. Good luck with build. [/QUOTE]
