For those of you who have experience with the chambering in a bolt action, does the standard SAAMI throat-length really need more than a typical 2.82" magazine in a Model 700? Judging from some factory A-max ammo I've looked at, the throat appears to be pretty long on most factory rifles. I've given thought to doing one on a 700 next year and have a 2.99" Wyatt's extended box on hand that my smith could install if need be. Bullets of choice would likely be the Scenar or the LRAB. Just a 22-23" varmint-style build if I wind up going for it.
