Curious what you mean by that?
I am assuming you mean COAL in a short action. The mag extension will be more than enough but ejection of a loaded cartridge appears to be the hurdle. It may be I have to shorten some but initial measurements looks like it should be able to eject a loaded cartridge to 2.9" not sure if I'll be able to get longer than that. Worst case is staying at 2.8. I don't really want to deal with removing the bolt.
The smith doing the job says 2.9 works. I guess we'll see. I may load some dummy cartridges to make sure.
the ejection port can be opened. I do it all the time to fit rounds as big as the 338 lapua in the xp100 actions.
