I have an "old" 12 twist that I don't shoot much any more (2500 + rounds). I seem to remember that it had a really long throat to the point that I couldn't even approach the lands with 74-75 grain bullets.

They are no-turn chambers. I can place 80-108 grain bullets anywhere from jam 20 to jump 50 easily with 1:8 barrels.
With 1:12 barrels i can put 60's into the lands.

My 12 twist must have had a 1-8 reamer used in it, because a Fowler 80 grain will come out of the case before you touch the lands.

 

[Terry]

I would call Savage. Even the 1:8 twist can seat 80's at jam.

I am sending it to Kevin Rayhill over the winter.

You should have no problem with it throat should be just fine for 105 to 108 in that single shot, if it had a mag maybe not
