[QUOTE="dmax1800, post: 832588, member: 68255"] This is not quite what you were looking for, but I have to chime in anyway. I had a 300 win mag built from a model 70, AND I WILL NEVER BUILD ANOTHER RIFLE ON A MODEL 70!!! When trying to seat Barnes bullets 70 thou off the lands, the cartridge is too long for the ejector. The ejector holds the end of the base of the second round and won't let it chamber. The bolt just rides over the top of the second round. I'm looking into grinding some off of the ejector so that the second round won't be held down. Sorry that this was a little off topic. [/QUOTE]
