[QUOTE="jpndave, post: 1875094, member: 5437"] I'm not a Savage guy so if any want to correct this, please do. Aren't their bolt heads replaceable? So Creedmoor to Mag face is easy. I did a quick search that showed their mag boxes are just under 3.0". If that is accurate, a 6.5 PRC would go for a hunting rifle. I still think lightening up the 6.5 CM might be a good option. Depends on the balance and how you like the rifle/cartridge. The 280 is closer to a "one rifle" gun. Like I said, I'm going light 6.5 CM then to a 300 PRC or SI. I'll probably use the little Kimber most of the time. Here's the quick first run on the forend of the factory (now semi-custom) stock. [/QUOTE]
