[QUOTE="gazzar15, post: 1059286, member: 70550"] I seem to remember an article on here about opening up the Weatherby MK5 boltface how big a job is this ? I currently have +/- .485 at the moment looking to open it up to accept the 300 winmag. I would be grateful for any opinions guys. Long story short it is currently chambered for 243 and doesn't feed more than one round, second one diving to one side of the bore. I bought it as something a bit different (I am a lefty)and was told it would be fine. The transaction was done over the phone/web and once I raised the issue with the gun shop they ran a mile. Right now I believe that swapping it back to a long action cartridge will solve the issue?? I have a 30 cal barrel I can get chambered. Opinions fellas ?? [/QUOTE]
