    DLW,

    Don’t have one but have had a conversation with a mate who does. They are short, and seating projectiles to the lands is difficult with VLD / sleek profiles. Maybe 88mm?

    Sako a7 mag length?

    DLW, sorry mate cannot answer your question but with the 84.5 mm oal from Riggs you can make up a dummy round and see how it comes together. Ie does the case neck have enough grip on the pill.
