Hello from Oregon

Hello,

Joined a while ago and have read a lot of great information on here. Relatively new to reading and long range shooting.

I currently have a 300 win mag built on a Curtis custom action and a MPA ultra light folding chassis. I am thinking about changing my stock to the XLR - Element 4.0 Magnesium Chassis.

Has anyone ever SA rounds from a LA? Can I use my LA with a bolt and barrel custom fit to fire a SA? I hope that makes sense? Was thinking of getting a 308 bolt and barrel chambered in 7mm-08 to fire from my LA.

Thanks
David

Welcome to long range hunting, from the piedmont of northeast georgia. Great to have you on board... i am sure there are people with the experience that you request on sa cartridges in la guns
Many years ago i did a 7mm mauser in a long action. There were plenty of 7mm cases then and it allowed a long stroke on the mauser cartridge. Ackley improving one gave somewhat more case capacity. My experience was it treaded close on the heels of the 280 remington., with imr4831.
