[QUOTE="MontanaRifleman, post: 353462, member: 11717"] Thanks all for the replies. Michael and Nate, that is just the sort of info I was looking for. I had already started another thread in the Gunsmithing section asking about the feed rails. I dont think they will be a problem. I tried loading 25-06 cases into my 300 RUM action and i could see anything wrong with that. They held down well and fed well. The 25-06 action feed rails are just a little narrow to allow the RUM cases, maybe about .010" or so. I figure I can open them up to the dimensions of the RUM action and i should be fine. If there is a hitch, JE said I should be able to install center feed mag boxes. BTW I am going to do this with both my Senderos. I plan on getting separate bolts for the different size bolt faces, so that's not a problem. I am planning on doing a 6.5 WSM at some point and maybe a 25 WSM as well, but I would like them in a short action. All my barrels will be Sendero contours, probably alll 27". Nate, your setup sounds too good to be true. Do you just hand tighten your barrel and remove it by hand? Unless anyone can think of a good reason why not that sounds like the best set up. Great video Nate, thanks for sharing. Cheers, Mark [/QUOTE]
