Thanks for the replies thus far .

I’m at 3.182” with 162 ELD-X in my T3 based .284 Win with a good bit of mag space remaining. That’s reamed a bit longer than standard and you could run the 162s at 3” I think. That would have more potential than a 7-08 AI, but a Wyatts box would give you all you need and more (as mentioned above).
