My wife gives me funny looks when I do that but hey it's just a huge cuttin board far as I'm concerned. Shell crap this fall when she comes in and I got two deer worth of quarters layin on top of it....grin

I've used one before and I worked very well to accommodate longer cartridge length. Pretty cheap modification too.

I'll check into that. I didn't realize I'd need a longer box when using a long action. Thanks.

To start with 85gr bthp's since I've got em and don't really need them. By the time I shoot them up it'll be close to deer season so I'm gonna switch to 95gr nbt's cause I done got em. After that if I'm still enjoying the chambering I'll order up a 8 twist and shoot the 105 amax's I've got stashed. Well that's today's plan anyway. A month ago this gun was gonna be a 6.5-284...lol
