While the other differences (mainly the shoulder angle and a shorter neck) were already noted, the actual neck length on a 300 Savage is near a quarter inch (0.221"). I've not found that particularly limiting unless having to keep h
eavy cast/gas checks above the powder space.
And the neck diameter specs are only 0.004" apart (308 mouth = 0.343" vs 300Sav mouth = 0.339"
Am I reading the [actual] SAAMI Charts wrong?
