[QUOTE="Batsin, post: 3089271, member: 126867"] He initially asked if he could rechamber his 270/308 rifle. That is a different proposition. The chamber largely depends on the action and if he will be a dedicated reloader vs someone who often uses factory ammo. Some Remington actions can't get much past 2.85" and the SAAMI spec for the 277 Fury is already 2.825". You could be stuck single loading with a lot of bullets if you put a longer throat in that action and want to get relatively close to the lands. Either that, or you will just be shooting stubby, low-BC bullets a little faster. On the other hand, if you do not want to use factory ammo, it makes sense to get a longer action and get the bullet out of the powder compartment. If you want to load high performance bullets like the Berger 170 EOL and want to keep the shank ahead of the donut, you need an action and mag over 3" long. [/QUOTE]
