I'm guessing thats how they built long actions using a short action cartridge. Your bolt head probably has an extended baffle limiting bolt travel too.
Hey guys, I was tinkering around today pulled my 112 barreled action out of the stock to check about trigger adjustment....which I wont be able to do. I bought it in the mid to late 90s new. It was the first rifle I'd bought myself. Its a 22-250, and has shot lights out since I bought it but the trigger is pretty rough especially since I started building on Savage actions and have better triggers in my builds. Any ways, I pulled it apart, its a staggerfeed 112, but my mag is like a short action.
Here is a pic with it next to a regular Long action SF box. I was just kinda curious as to what I actually have. Obviously the 112s are long actions, it just threw me when I saw it looked like a SA box.
Thanks

"...shall not be infringed" What's the confusion?
Your answer is in the FAQ section, and yes , that's how the used long actions for short action cartridges.
Ahh, I see, I see. Thanks guys, I knew it was before they made the SAs, just wasnt real sure what exactly it was. So....would it be possible to change the bolt head on it...say to a 223 bolt face? Im dont necessarily have plans of doing it, but if I wanted too.....

I'm the Boss. I make sure what she wants gets done.
It is possible. It would require the 223 SA SF mag box.
