Which Remington Action did you use for the 33xc? What donor action ? I've not personally seen a Remington 700 action big enough to accept the 33xc.Not saying t h ere is nit one.Ive just not seen one myself.
rem receiver ptg solid bolt with lapua bolt face
Ive used Stiller Actions and bought 2 from PTG myself.They make the bolts for Stiller.
What are the diemnsions on that Remington action for the 33XC. Ive just never seen a REmington action that large.
I like TRemington actions.If they wewre not so good a design,,, Some people dog them..But if they were good,then there wouldnt be so many Reminton Clones or Remington. Foot Print Actions advertized.. LOL
long action , single shot only
So am I correct in thinking that it is a Remington 700 Long Action single feed ? So it was Nothing Special or Custom Built for you?
long action regular feed and yes nothing special

Do you have to pull the bolt to eject a live round with that one, or is the port long enough for your COAL?There is a fella on here (gnbruce) that has built XC's on a Remington action. I personally would not. I bought a Savage 112 .338 Lapua (single shot) and have been playing with a 33XC. There's a little more "meat" to that action/bolt than a 700.
Edited: the reason I wanted a little more beef is because when you see the size of that case you may too.
Meant nothing against gnbruce.
I had to pull the bolt on my 33xc Savage 112Action.I have since had it trimmed out so it willejectnon a LIVE round.

Okay, I've been pondering that. Thanks!
Youre welcome.I should also say that I was running the Hornady 300 Grain A-Tips set out as far as Possible.It may have woorked hadI triedto eject a Hornady 285 Gr DELD-MatchI beleive.
