Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Canada What's the perferred deer cartridge for guys in Canada?

The brass is thinner, and for Lee Enfields at least, separations are usually the result of their longer chambers.

In theory, if Ruger kept the chambers to minimum spec, stretching shouldn't be too bad. That, and the type of lock up is different. No 1s are stronger and don't flex. That's the theory, but at the end of the day, you still have to examine the cases.

We know that they followed the original specs for the barrel. The measured land to land measurement is .313 inches. That's why I asked about the accuracy. WRT chamber length, a chamber cast would have to be made.
