    As I said prior - I dont get it
    I understand the 'because you can' and if thats not the reason, you're having to use a custom action for case which is better than what? and you are achieving what?
    Seems like square peg in round hole situation, and getting a new gold plated hole instead of a wooden peg to suit
    Spanners, you are making assumptions about something you know nothing about. The action we are using is lighter than a s/s LA 700 and also has some other benefits. You are pushing your luck driving a 300gr pill at 3100fps with any case in a rem action.
