Default RE: question about new rifle purchase

Kinda off topic but not too much since it concerns the 350 Rem Mag. Did they lengthen the magazine on the 673? I remember hearing that the magazine on the older models (was it the 660?) was a bit short and the heavier bullets had to be set back which took up case capacity, which in turn caused the 350 Rem Mag ballistics to appear more like the 35 Whelan and the 358 Win. I always thought the 350 would be an interesting cartridge in a custom rifle, but I am leaning more towards a 358 Win since I really like 308 Win based cartridges and you can get a 358 Win barel for a Savage 110.
