I have an action from a 7Rem Mag. Can I put a 416 Rem Mag barrel and have it feed through this action? Paul Gulbas | ||

Maybe. What action is it? _______________________________________________________________________________ This is my rifle, there are many like it but this one is mine. My rifle is my best friend, it is my life. | |||

What brand is the action? Some easy, some need a new mag box only and some can't without major work. A 416 Taylor would be a sure bet in any action. "Experience" is the only class you take where the exam comes before the lesson. | |||

The max OAL cartridge length of the 416Rem is 3.60" This is the same as the 375H&H but significantly longer than the 3.290 Max length of the 7mmMag I find it "odd" that the 7mmMag MAX OCL is actually shorter than the 30-06 COL of 3.340" when the 7mmMag was specifically designed to fit in a 30-06 length action. If you have a Remington 700 or a Win M70 you'll be fine. in anything else.... ? AD If I provoke you into thinking then I've done my good deed for the day!

The Remington 700 in 7mmMag is built on Remington's "Long" action, which IS a "Magnum" (375H&H length) action. a 416 will go right in. You probably won't need more than a few touchups to the feed rails, if that... AD If I provoke you into thinking then I've done my good deed for the day!
