Thread: 7mm08 conversation

Also bear in mind that some actions might be fine with the -08 parent cartridge but the slightly fatter body on the .284 case might make it ordinary for feeding. I dummied up a setup on an action and it would have required feed rails tweaked to get it running right, off the bottom of the mag was fine but the top rounds wanted to pop out of the feed rails and slap the top of the chamber. Decided that it would have been too much of a hassle to make it work, your action might be fine with it though.
