Gunsmithing Stiller 338 X AMU contour barrel 30"

[Erthal]

Will a Stiller repeater TAC 338 action support a 30 inches AMU contour barrel or this will cause to much stress in the action due the weight?

I aint worried about weight, but I want top velocities and precision.

Help to make the best decision.
Thanks

Yep

It has a larger tenon (wider and longer) to accomidate the larger cartridge and the larger/longer barrels used
Long AMU/MTU/Heavy Varmint barrels are common in these builds

I built a Model 7 with a 28" MTU that shot fantastic , the action was fully bedded and the barrel was free floated from the lug forward.

Thanks guys

I know that AMU and MTU barrels are big, but aint sure about exact dimensions. Are they 1.350" for 2.750" straight, then tapering for .930" at 30"or something around?
