So I have this Savage 111 300 RUM receiver that I was going to barrel to 338 RUM. Since the Savage action is limited to 3.800 COAL give or take a smidge, and some afterthought, I've decide to barrel to 300 Win Mag at 3.750. Bolt face diameter is within .002 of each other, stuck a Win Mag in the bolt, and extractor seems to grip. Is there any reason or technical problem why this wouldn't work??
