[QUOTE="Mike Matteson, post: 1825282, member: 101791"] It sure dose looks like a 300 Win Mag fired in 300 Wby Mag alright. Overall length on a 300 Win Mag is 2.620, and 2.825 for a 300 Wby Mag. The shoulder lenghts on a 300 Win Mag is 2.356 and Wby Mag is 2.384. Note the difference from the rim to the belt. Somebody got mixed up or something. Anybody look at the head stamping on the case's? I am not for sure on the 30/06 cases, but they look to be a head spacing problem.That rifle needs to go to a gun smith. You can covert several case into other cases, but you have to full length resize the case to start with. Trim to length and other work. 30/06 case can converted to 308, 270, 25/06 cases. The Winchester Mag case can be converted to be used for anything from 338 Win Mag, 300 Win Mag, 308 Norma Mag and 264 Win Mag. There is some work involved to complete the case change, but it works. Don't say that can't be done. I covert 300 Win Mag cases all the time into 308 Norma Mag cases. Buying 308 Norma Mag cases are very expenses and 264 Win Mag case can be a little prices too.
