Would someone with a 788 chambered in a 308 class cartridge please verify their dimensions in comparison (to mine):
Action screws for stock (6-3/4" center to center)
Length of bolt shank from the front of the forwardmost bolt lug to the bolt face (3.355")
I am also length limited in the magazine to about 2.42" cartridge OAL, the ejection port is about 2.3" long, and the mag cut is about 2.5". All would have to be increased accordingly to allow for 308 class cartridges (if the action and bolt length even allow).
