[QUOTE="dwm, post: 5119, member: 1136"] Why does Remington put so much freebore in thier chambers? If I load so that the bullet is 0.005 off the lands, the loaded round does not fit in the magazine. What is up with this? I sort of understood with the 7mm RUM. It is based on a really long case and that may make it hard to fit into the magazine. But the 7mm SAUM makes no sense. The 7mm SAUM should have been based on a long action Rem 700. Then maybe I could get a cartridge with a bullet 0.005 off the lands into the magazine. Someone please explain to me why there is so much freebore in these chambers ... Doug PS. My 25-06 works great 0.005 off the lands and they fit into the magazine. [/QUOTE]
