[QUOTE="ralfus, post: 1486574, member: 20413"] While it sounds counterintuitive, modifying a rifle for a larger cartridge case often requires opening up rails. Same difference as opening up a Mauser to chamber 300winmag. I need to remove the guide ribs in the magazine box to open up for the wider shouldered cases. When fully loaded, the stacked fatter rounds push upward on the top round as it is pushed forward. This same problem happens with 300 mag actions converted to RUM. [/QUOTE]
