Jeffe... your 700 DA is a belted BMG case and quite similar but would not a belted BMG case to the 700 NE dimensions be better? the 700NE is 3.25" long and .780" at the base. Why not have a 10 thou belt and 780 at the base like the 700NE with a .800" belt? Would not be too hard to alter the chamber and dies. 577 BME 3"500 KILL ALL 358 GREMLIN 404-375 *we band of 45-70ers* (Founder) Single Shot Shooters Society S.S.S.S. (Founder) | ||

the 700 DA is meant to be the largest sporting round you can fit in the PH action .. and the 700 NE has ignition problems with even federal 215s... its HUGE work backwards from 4.1", and a .780 bolt face, and see what you can get. .800 belt is .020 total headspace, boomy, and I would prefer about .820 jeffe opinions vary band of bubbas and STC hunting Club Information on Ammoguide about the416AR, 458AR, 470AR, 500AR What is an AR round?

Can BMG primers be used? It could measure .775" at .4" ahead of the belt giving 12.5 thou headspace like the 375 HH. I was just thinking of a 700NE homage cart that would be easy without too much custom stuff. a 20 thou rebate is not much... kinda like the WSMs and the ultramags rebate. .780" rim .800" belt .775" casehead 3.25" long 700 NE dies and reamers with a little custom work. Use 700 NE loads That would work in the PH right? This would be quite similar to the 12GFH in terms of size and power. 577 BME 3"500 KILL ALL 358 GREMLIN 404-375 *we band of 45-70ers* (Founder) Single Shot Shooters Society S.S.S.S. (Founder) | |||
