    Ah wait, sorry. That sounds exactly like the coppers
    Greetings Csmiffy,
    The action was intended for the .308, .243 and the like plus is had a dropped mag. I think this is the right term where the floor plate is part way down the front of the trigger guard. You see this on African rifles for the big fat cartridges. It might have been 7 but it was more than the 5 for my VSSF and 4 in the T3. It was a nice rifle but not up to the NZDA target shooting I was doing when I sold it and got the VSSF.
    Regards Grandpamac.
