[QUOTE="Monkeygoat, post: 2414050, member: 112396"] MDT makes a 3.56" COAL magazine that I use in my Vision chassis for my Tikka in 6.5 Max. These magazines are like butter with the Max (saum imp). I asked about bolt face because the larger cartridges that still fit in a long action magazine (norma improved / lapua improved) use the 588, and those are not listed as options on the kelblys you've selected. The RUM has that capacity in a normal magnum boltface, but you'd be running 4.2" with the big stuff in an Edge, so definitely no mag feeding. Back to selection, you should use the pdf on Rich's site to figure relative velocities for his cartridges and run ballistics on the cases and projectiles that interest you. I generally compare 500,1000,1500, and see where each goes trans-sonic, for the case and projectile I'm considering. Don't forget about the Badlands solids... and don't forget about barrel twists - you can thread the needle to shoot both solids and the heavy cup and core. [/QUOTE]
