G'Day Fella's,

I think you may have your wires crossed S & F, as this is the same action, that Remington chamber there .416 Rem Mags in!

Ok so your saying the magazine box and acting inletting in the Remington's 300 ADL is the SAME for the 416 Rem Mag, that seems a little extravagant doesn't it.

If that is the case then, Yes I must have got it crossed who would guess that Remingtons STANDARD Magnum length rifles had the SAME inletting and magazine box of the larger 2.85inch 375H&H, 416 RM and 458 Lott length cases.

Because as you all know he only wants to put either a 375 Ruger or 416 Ruger into a Remington 300 WM ADL action.

Not a lot of companies do this, the 7mm, 300 and 338 magnum case can fit into a standard length action. It seems crazy that Remington would need to open the action up to 416 Rem Mag length if a standard length action will work

Because if he owned a 300 WM in about 95% of the rifles on the market there's NO WAY in HELL he would fit a 375 H&H, 416 Rem Mag or 458 Lot in a standard magnum action amd magazine box?

And he does want to put a 375 or 416 Ruger into that action doesn't he....Both the 375 & 416 Rugers are designed to fit into "standard length" actions, Not long magnum actions. So if he has the longer action goign to a Ruger is silly isn't, it's like wantign to make a 300 WSM on an action big enought to take a 300 Win Mag

As I mentioned I actually own a 416 Ruger and just put a case into the magazine box of my Remington 375 H&H SPS (same length as the 416 Rem Mag and 458 Lott) and there is a lot of room in the mag box infornt of the projectile and I've never seen a spacer in the mag box of the Remington 7mm or a 300 Win mag ADL's.

So what your saying is I would have no problems feeding one of my 300g 375H&H loaded cases into this guys 300 WM ADL magazine box..........this I just have to try.


regards
S&F
