[QUOTE="WildRose, post: 1385554, member: 30902"] It is the diameter of the round that will determine if it feeds properly or not rather than the length. Lot's of guys building customs for a traditional short action on LA receivers just so they can seat bullets way out and with longer and longer bullets coming out this will become more rather than less common. If anything you'll have to change out spring followers to ensure proper feeding since they two are designed to work off of diameter rather than length. The only likely feeding issue you'll have would be short stroking the bolt and thus failing to get the next round started properly. [/QUOTE]
