Is there enough room for the 7 STW?
« on: September 08, 2009, 07:00:54 PM »
I got a question is the action on the new remington sps 7mm rem mag big enough to accept the 7stw and is the mag assembly long enough for the round?  Thanks for the help I think of buying a 7mag and having it rechambered, anyone else do this?  Kris

Sorry Kris, but your action is too short to handle the 7STW.

Remington only makes two lengths of M700 action. Short and long. The same action is used for things like .270 and .30-06 all the way up to the RUM and the STW rounds merely use the full length H&H mag case I believe which easily fits into the long action.

Now that doesn't mean you can fire it in your 7 Rem. Mag gun but that it can be rebarrelled to it.
