Thanks for the comments. The 6.5 x 284 definatley won't fit the Remington short action. I know wyatts outdoors make a box magazine that extends the mag length in remington sa's from 2.95 to 3.06 so was thinking That could get me a 6.5 saum with 139's 140 vld's to box feed.
Check with Wyatts,they do not make a 700 s/a box that will get you to 3.06".it's 2.99" .3.07" is the overall length of the box.inside it's 2.995(from the Wyatt website)I just had one installed in a new 6.5RM. Monashee
