[QUOTE="MudRunner2005, post: 924708, member: 12995"] The .264 WinMag uses a magnum bolt face and magnum magazine follower. The .270 uses a standard bolt face and follower. If you are wanting to build a .264 WinMag (which is an awesome caliber, BTW) I would look for a good used Remington 700 BDL or SPS in 7mm Rem Mag or .300 WinMag to use as a donor. Since your rifle has a standard bolt face, I would look to the .280 Ackley Improved 40* shoulder. You can pick up the .280 AI dies, reamer, brass, and ammo from Midway USA. [/QUOTE]
