[QUOTE="FURMAN, post: 1521060, member: 26535"] The larger case diameter has more surface area on the case head. This applies more force to the bolt which causes more force to be applied to the lug abutments. It is well documented that in many, if not most, cases will cause lug abutment set back. A lot of smiths will not even build a Laupa bolt face cartridge on a action not specifically built for it and I am not talking about one with a correct bolt face. I obviously can not tell you what to do but I would not do it. I would do some checking around with many different smiths before proceeding. [/QUOTE]
