[QUOTE="Rhett Crider, post: 2767825, member: 105034"] Same exact box. 1340. I thought it might be but also thought it might have 2 vertical stamped grooves to narrow it where the shell rides like the CM box did. Notice the notch on each side of the new follower? Usually for a stamped box narrower. The CM box is the same dimensions but with the 2.8 spacer spot welded in rear and 2 stamped narrowers on each side. I doubt the Wyatts box setup will work for you. Way too short overall vertically. I'll call Winchester today to verify they sent the correct mag box. Has to be 3.0 due to SAAMI spec 6.5PRC COAL of 2.955, just not sure if it should have the stamped narrower. I dropped off 3 builds at my smiths and didn't specify any order so it might be awhile before I get it back. I see you now have enough posts so I can PM you. Also note, I ordered these parts Monday and received them Wednesday. Pretty good service in my opinion. [/QUOTE]
