Hey guys i just ordered a shilen 260 rem prefit for my model 11 from midwayusa. After ordering it i realized it did not list freebore of the chamber. I was wanting to shoot berger 140vlds. Can i get to the lands and still be in the savage SA mag length? My mag measures 2.980" . It will be here in a week but its driving me nuts not knowing. Thanks.

I am not sure the data from my 28" Shilen 260 Rem will apply to your particular barrel. However my Ogive is 2.284" for 140gr Berger VLD Target #26401. Don't have OAL as I use ogive to seat my rounds. As you are probably aware Berger bullet accuracy can be had with considerable jump from the lands and jamming the lands is not always a requirement. My Alpha 1 mag is 2.920".
