I'm considering building a rem 260, but I'd like to be able to shoot the long Berger 130 or 140 6.5 mm bullets without jamming them way back into the case.

First of all, I know the Savage Long Actions are nice and long (I have one and can fit almost any magnum cartridge into it, even with bullets seated WAY out). How about the Savage Short Actions? Do they give you a little more than the 2.800" magazines that the Remington and Kimbers give you?

Failing that, I know Wyatt and HS Precision make extended magazine boxes for Rem 700 short actions. These allow cartridge lengths of up to about 2.9", with only minor gunsmithing required. Does anyone know if anything like this is available for Savage short actions?

I really like the Savage actions, and would prefer to use one if possible! Thanks in advance for helping!
