That action if you can get one, was actually designed for the big magnums,(specifically the TRG 338 Lapua) but a bunch got turned into standard actions cause they were available and wanted.
    I've just built a 338 on a 995, unfortunately just as all this was happening so i hope it stays legal.
    @257weatherby you don't have any 995 parts do you? They aren't that easy to find

    Sorry, no - I only lug standard cartridges about these days, would have another 995 if I could get one though.
