Use a long action. You can then throat for longer bullets and not worry about mag length.
That's an interesting idea! Have you done this and are there feeding issues to be concerned about?Use a long action. You can then throat for longer bullets and not worry about mag length.
This is exactly my experience too.50 + years of hunting
taught me its not the gun. its the hunter ! rick
GOOD,.. "Choice" !Thanks for all that info searcher! I may just buy a Tikka and call it good. I don't need a more powerful cartridge than the 7mm-08 as all I hunt is deer and hogs here on the eastern USA.
Then I'd opt for a 6mm or 6.5mm option. Less recoil and plenty of energy for those prey. If you're a good shot a 6mm Creedmoor will drop any deer or hog.Thanks for all that info searcher!
