6x6.5x47 Feeding Question

[Varminthunter]

I am getting ready to build a 6x6.5x47 Lapua. It's going to be a repeater and I am wondering how it feeds from a magazine. I will be using a Surgeon Short Action Repeater and Badger Ordnance M5 bottom metal for 5 and 10 round magazines. I would like to know how this cartridge feeds before I pull the trigger on the project.

I will be using the lighter 65 to 75grn bullets. I would like to hear your opinion on this issue. I am really interested in this cartridge and want it to work in this type of configuration.

My smith told me to switch to a 22-250 magazine box and it would feed fine. I am just now waiting on bedding to set up and am going to do some loading tonight I can tell you how well it feeds tomorrow.

The Savage feeds from the magazine slicker than snot on a doorknob. 120gr Bergers by the way.
