Model 7 in 6.5prc

I just picked up a model 7 action with a 223 bolt which I'll be having a barrel chambered in 223. But was also looking at getting a model 7 bolt with the mag bolt face and doing the 6.5 prc. My question is there enough room to make it feed and eject reliably? I know that there some in 7saum and things like that but wanna make sure the 6.5prc will work in the action. Itll be running the ptg model 7 dbm in a mcmillian a5 stock if that makes any difference.
 
I have a model 7 that I have two barrels for, the original 350 Rem Mag and also a Shilen 6.5 Rem mag. The 6.5 with 125 partitions is deadly, and in a model 7 is my favorite deer rifle/cartridge set up.
