[QUOTE="MagnumManiac, post: 1096556, member: 10755"] Even if the conversion was simple, you still won't match the velocity of the 300WM over the WSM, there's no substitute for cubic capacity, unfortunately. If you want to load longer in your 300, do so and single load it, or extend the mag box. I had a M77 MK II in 300WM, I don't recall the mag box being that short at 3.34" in mine, in fact, my 25-06 measures over 3.4" (MK II) and my 270 (tang safety) measures 3.375". I think if you can make a MK II mag box fit, it will give you all the room you will need. Cheers. gun) [/QUOTE]
