Extending the mag for a mini-mauser
Kinda quick question. Zastava mini mauser actions (previously imported by Interarms, now by KBI/Charles Daly) have a magazine length of 2.37 inches with a bolt face of .453, which is just right for a 22-250. I was wondering if anyone has managed to extend the length of that. It would be a sweet little action to build a 250 Savage on, but that would require a magazine built to take the 2.5 inch SAAMI COL for the 250. Can this be done on this action? Can the magazine be lengthened to accommodate that cartridge?

If you go back a few weeks there is a discussion on the actions you enquired about.
