[QUOTE="hubel585, post: 1673011"] Some more gun info. Here is picture of a nice, large diameter action a fellow built, for big bore use.Nice beautiful machine work, He put a 700 short case in it. He called it 700WTF. It would do 12ga, 16ga, 20 ga, etc. Second is the 8 bore we just made on falling block. It is chambered for now for the 8ga 3.3" heavy duty plastic case that we use. That we get by swaging the belt down on the new 8ga kiln cases, that BPI and Precision Reloading sell. The chamber fires old original 8ga cases also, but a regular kiln load not swaged, won't chamber, a safety factor for guns not as strong as the falling block. Guys in the UK gave me the idea of swaging down the belt on kiln cases, as they did it to get cases for their old 8ga doubles. Third is the Savage 210 we put a 700 cal barrel in and made it a 700NE. The 700 NE has same rim diameter as 12ga, but a smaller base, ,020" smaller, Handles the loads fine, as its factory loads are the same as our top loads in the Savage with RMC 3.5 brass cases. Before that I had my 700H 3.25" belted case in it. Worked great. 4th- we made a 28ga FH, a brass case 3.25" long that RMC made for us. The chamber still fits and fires shorter 28ga plastic cases.Here is one in picture with a 505 Gibbs to show the size and potential. I put first one in a Mossy 695 bolt gun with a heavy rifled barrel. The 28ga rifled is same groove diameter as the 550 magnum, so same diameter slugs work. 5th are couple of our 12ga FH cases guys shortened for short actions, less recoil. Left are 2 inches,right 2.25" and some have shortened them to 2.5" for use in guns that will feed loaded 3" plastic. The 3" loaded plastic and 2.5" brass with slug are about 2.7" overall.. If you folks have questions we'll help if we can.Ed [IMG]https://www.okshooters.com/data/MetaMirrorCache/www.gunownerstv.com_jaction.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]https://www.okshooters.com/data/MetaMirrorCache/www.gunownerstv.com_8gafb.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]https://www.okshooters.com/data/MetaMirrorCache/www.gunownerstv.com_matt700.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]https://www.okshooters.com/data/MetaMirrorCache/www.gunownerstv.com_28fhg.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]https://www.okshooters.com/data/MetaMirrorCache/www.gunownerstv.com_2inch12.jpg[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
