Gunsmithing 6.5PRC on a Long Action

[Maliclipse]

Has anyone built a 65PRC on a long action?

Any feeding issues?

Any issues with the rounds moving forward on recoil?

I have someone that wants to run longer bullets (like the 156EOL) and dont want to deal with 3" SA mag issues. I put together a 65PRC on a Lone Peak fuzion medium last year using their DBM/mags and while that worked it was very expensive.

Thanks!

I asked this question a while back, and and it appears to be a 50/50 proposition. If its mag fed would probably work as is. A BDL style floorplate may require a spacer of some sort in the mag box to keep rounds from shifting and causing feeding issues.
