[QUOTE="geocodyrgia, post: 1278195, member: 98212"] I figured since the conversation turned towards magazine length I'd go measure. Numbers established from putting a Berger .277 170gr into a case until it just barely cleared the front of the mag box. Numbers are approximate because it was kind of dark in the garage. :) OAL length I can fit in the old Savage = 3.46 OAL length I can fit in the Ruger MKII = 3.381 Will 3.46 fit a 280 Sherman with a 180gr bullet seated so the boat tail doesn't intrude on powder space?
