Do any of you know if it is possible to expand the magazine length of a Remington 700 BDL short action? I have a 308W that will accommodate cartridges with a COAL under 2.8300". Some of my best shooting rounds exceed this length, for instance Noslers 165 grain bullets seated to a COAL of 2.901" shoot very well. This length is .0200" from the lands. Some Sierra 165 grain loads slightly exceed 2.8400" when set .0200 from the lands. I can seat my bullets deeper but I get the best accuracy when the bullet shoulder approaches the lands.
