BillyboyHowa 1500 action for an Rem Ultramag??
Anybody know if it will fit? I don't have a long action handy to measure the magazine box.
Thanks!

ShortandFatAs a single shot no problem, but assuming you want to use the magazine......I wouldn't think so, Maybe the shorter, lighter projectiles would make it but the longer, heavier ones might cause a problem with Maximum Overall Length
but I'd be interested in the result, it would be close
I wouldn't worry about strength, I know of 2 416 Taylors built on Howa actions and both use hot loads

I have no clue. I do know that Wby chambers the Vanguard (1500) in 300Wby. Its OAL is 3.56". Is there room for another .04"
