[QUOTE="Trickymissfit, post: 1202840, member: 25383"] With a couple exceptions the MK.V. is the strongest action you can lay your hands on. The others are falling blocks and one odd bolt gun mostly used in Africa. Roy Weatherby had a .300 Weatherby MK. V. action laying on his office desk that he used for a paper weight. They purposely fired a squib in it, and then fired a full bore load thru it. The barrel had a large bulge in it, but the first bullet was simply pushed out by the second bullet. They bolt still cycled smoothly, and could probably have been rebarreled. The barrel after it was removed was placed in a corner. Try that with a 700 Remington, but make sure Obama Care has you covered!! gary [/QUOTE]
