Well, Thanks for all the input guys. This thread has been read by 90+ people and not a single reply...sigh. I just spent near a $1000 for good parts to put together a good shooting rifle, full length sized brass to fit this tight chamber and yet I can't seat a standard SMK 168 anywhere near the minimum OAL shown by any manual. I guess I'll have to try the guy I bought all this stuff from and see if he has a clue. I thought there would be one person that has dealt with Savages (this is a Savage forum, no?) that could give me a reasonable explanation as to why I can't chamber this bullet?
