[QUOTE="rscott5028, post: 497515, member: 24624"] What are the pro's and con's of opening up a Winchester Model 70 reciever from 1" x 16 tpi to 1 1/16" x 16 tpi to match the Remington 700 threading? (it's a late model push feed) I have a wide variety of rifles and now that I have a lathe, I'm thinking it would be nice if every rifle had the same threads to give more options. Obviously, I can't do this with my Savage, Mauser, Steyer, Kleinguenther, etc. But, I see where some have done it with their M70. ... or is it just time to go with the herd and trade them out for 700's? I told my son the Steyer might have to go in order to pay for some of this and it was like he just lost his best friend. :-( Thanks! Richard [/QUOTE]
