Long Case question

[ThisGuy]

I have finished my build and it measures in at 55". I am looking for a case that will fit it. I do have a folding chassis, and that measures at 45". Would the IM3300 or the 1700 Pelican work with the rifle folded, or will the cases not be thick enough. I am sure the 1770 would work, but it is a little out of my price range.

So far, the only soft case I have found is the Voodoo Tactical. I don't mind going with a soft case, but for this build, I would rather have a hard case.


Thanks

Try looking at Case Club. I got mine from them for my 375. Very nice cases.

SKB makes some that will fit 60 inches internally...but mine is HEAVY and awkward. It does come with wheels.

The IM3300 will definitely work. I had a Manners folder on a rifle with a 36" barrel and longish brake and it fit fine when folded, plenty of padding and its an excellent case. Note that I built my own interior - went to a local foam shop and bought a 1' and a 2" slab of high density, 2.2# polyethylene. Use a decent fillet knife and have at it (the trick is to keep the blade dead vertical when cutting). Enjoy.

Thanks, I went ahead and ordered the IM3300. I have a 3100 and took the barreled action off and put the chassis folded in the smaller case. looks like it will fit perfect. I have bought foam locally, but unfortunately the only available around here is lime green.

Thanks for all the help.
