Could someone please post what the internal dimensions are for the magazine box in the Kimber Mountain Ascent rifle for the 84M and 84L actions? I have tried to get this information from Kimber, but the reps have been worse than useless. The last rep I spoke with there told me, "I am not allowed to tell you that information; I can only repeat the information listed on the website." I asked if I could speak to their technical service group and he told me even the gunsmith is not allowed to share that information. I have had similar experiences with other reps when I sought other information. My concern is with petite size actions such as this that a small mag box may constrain the ability to benefit from bullet jump or possibly loading heavier longer bullets without constraining case capacity. Perhaps I am wrong here, but I could benefit from others' experiences. If anyone has experience handloading for this rifle in these action sizes, please share. Thank you

I can load to a cartridge OAL of 2.82" max in my 84M Montanas in 7mm-08 and .338 Fed.

Did you tell him that calipers exist and anyone with a set could measure this?
It's not a trade secret.
