Bought a model 7 recently....it was
rem 222 mag....had it neutered to 223...
Got it back from gs and checking it out that evening....it won't hold 223 cartridges in the box...figured a box lip tweak would help..back to gs.....after failed attempts he tried 243 & 22250 in the box..perfect fit....
The problem is that the barrel which was just made into 223 would now need to be rebored to larger caliber I don't want..and that the current bolt won't fit....so say 300$ more.....
I see that the 22Nosler is bigger case than the 223..but smaller than 243...
Anyone have a model 7 shooting 22Nosler....
