6mm BR feeding from magazine question...

[ShaneO]

Can i expect feeding issues if i built a 6mm BR on a Rem short action assuming i would be shooting the heavy Berger bullets. There should be plenty of room in the magazine but not sure how the longer bullets feed? Single shot bolt action rifles dont excite me as you can tell.

I would expect you will run into some issues trying to feed short 6BR cases from M700 magazine but these can be overcome . Here is a link from a past article about Mike Bryant's magazine conversion for the 6BR: http://www.6mmbr.com/Rem700magfix.html

Good Luck,

Does anyone make these conversion parts? I am thinking about having a rifle re-barreled to 6.5mmBR and would need it to feed from the magazine.
